Transcranial magnetic stimulation and epilepsy.

Carlo Alberto Tassinari1, Massimo Cincotta, Gaetano Zaccara, Roberto Michelucci.   

Abstract

Epileptic conditions are characterized by an altered balance between excitatory and inhibitory influences at the cortical level. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) provides a noninvasive evaluation of separate excitatory and inhibitory functions of the cerebral cortex. In addition, repetitive TMS (rTMS) can modulate the excitability of cortical networks. We review the different ways that TMS has been used to investigate pathophysiological mechanisms and effects of antiepileptic drugs in patients with epilepsy and epileptic myoclonus. The safety of different TMS techniques is discussed too. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic prospects of rTMS in this field.
