title: Brain-behavior relations: transcranial magnetic stimulation: a review.
abstract: In recent years, noninvasive brain stimulation methods have been proposed as the next-generation technology to probe and eventually interfere with brain function. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a 20-year-old technique originally introduced to investigate nervous propagation along the corticospinal tract, spinal roots, and peripheral nerves in humans. TMS is extensively used in clinical neurophysiology, including rehabilitation and intraoperative monitoring.
