摘要: The awareness of the global trends in neuroscience study, especially in the cognitive neuroscience field, should be increased. One notable approach is the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) not only as a research tool but also as a choice for treatment and rehabilitation in neurological disorders, such as post-stroke hemiplegia, visuospatial neglect syndrome, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and psychiatric conditions such as major depression and schizophrenia. All of these occur in significant numbers in highly populated regions. This paper briefly discusses the basic protocols and potential benefits of using TMS with the aim of providing insight that is useful in the design of future public health strategies in highly populated regions with a large neurocognitive burden of disease where this technique is currently underemployed. 其他題名: Int J Neurosci 出版者: England: Informa Healthcare 出版日期: 2014-10-02 出處: International journal of neuroscience, 2014-10, Vol.124 (10), p.717-723 資源來源: EBSCOhost Academic Search Premier 版權: 2014 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc. 2014 識別號: ISSN: 0020-7454 識別號: ISSN: 1563-5279 識別號: EISSN: 1563-5279 識別號: EISSN: 1543-5245 識別號: DOI: 10.3109/00207454.2013.872641 識別號: PMID: 24392811
