Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive and painless technique that has opened up completely new and fascinating avenues to study neural plasticity. First, TMS can be used to detect changes in excitability or connectivity of the stimulated cortex which may have occurred through processes such as learning or recovery from a lesion. Second, repeated TMS by itself can induce changes in excitability and connectivity of the stimulated cortex which may be used therapeutically in neurological and psychiatric disease. Third, TMS can induce short-lasting 'virtual lesions', which may directly test the functional relevance of brain plasticity. Current knowledge of all these exciting possibilities is brought together in this book, written by the world's leading experts in the field. The book is an essential compendium on plasticity of the human brain for clinical neurophysiologists, neurologists, psychiatrists and neuroscientists. 606 $aNeuroplasticity 606 $aMagnetic brain stimulation 615 0$aNeuroplasticity. 615 0$aMagnetic brain stimulation. 676 $a612.8 702 $aBoniface$b Simon J.$f1964- 702 $aZiemann$b Ulf 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783117203321 996 $aPlasticity in the human nervous system$93702311 997 $aUNINA
