Repetitive TMS (rTMS) targeted to primary motor cortex (M1) has been proven effective in treating pharmacoresistant chronic neuropathic pain. However, the mechanisms of action of rTMS are so far unknown. Better efficacy has been shown when rTMS is targeted to adjacent cortical area (Lefaucheur et al., 2006), though somatotopic targeting is also commonly used. Previously, smaller hand motor representation...
Although radiotherapy (RT) applied to treat brain tumors is a standard clinical procedure, the influence of RT on neural functions and structures nearby the tumor and the treatment volume has not widely been investigated. Thereby, functional areas are commonly not avoided as organs of risk. In this pilot study we evaluated whether TMS and DTI are beneficial in RT planning. Also, we aimed to receive...
