Transcranial magnetic stimulation: the road to clinical therapy for dystonia

Despite many research studies, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is not yet an FDA-approved clinical therapy for dystonia patients. This review describes the four major challenges that have historically hindered the clinical translation of TMS. The four challenges described are limited types o...
