Precision mapping and transcranial magnetic stimulation of individual-specific functional brain networks in humans.

Overview

Spatial targeting in transcranial magnetic stimulation protocols does not typically account for the idiosyncratic functional organization of individual human brains. Here, we provide a protocol for implementing targeted functional network stimulation (TANS), which accounts for each individual's unique functional neuroanatomy and cortical folding patterns. Using an example dataset, we describe how to create a head model and estimate the best coil placement and stimulation intensity to minimize off-target effects. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lynch et al. (2022).¹.
