Cellular Activation from TMS - Modeling
In contrast, this study says TMS activates the axon terminals.
The authors do not agree with the modeling approach in previous study shown.

Cellular Activation from TMS – Parietal
Single Neuron Recording in Macaque
Monkey• TMS is more focal than predicted in
models by an order of magnitude,
can change firing rate of neurons
within 4mm2
• Magnitude of stimulation and
orientation of coil changes
underlying activity (AP or PA)
• TMS may induce low frequency
oscillatory activity in spiking neurons
and neighbors

Romero et. al, Nature Communications, 2019
• TMS influences a wide variety of cell
types and generates a response by
40ms and lasting 100ms post stim. 6
What is TMS-EEG?
• Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation + Electroencephalography
• Measures sum of neuronal activity
immediately after TMS pulse
• We can average the signal over many trials
to get transcranial evoked potentials (TEPs)
• We can measure functional connectivity
between electrodes in frequencies 1-50 Hz
TMS+EEG
• Features extracted from TMS-EEG signals
have good individual repeatability
