Interest in magnetic stimulation (MS) of peripheral nerves has grown rapidly, but difficulties in determining excitation sites and computing the stimulation efficiency have prevented magnetic stimulation from becoming a routing clinical tool. The classical cable function has demonstrated that the activating function of nerves is the first spatial derivative of the electric field component parallel...
The classical cable equation can not predict the excitation of peripheral nerves to transverse field induced by pulse magnetic field. In this paper, a new model, based on tow-stage process, is advanced to represent the response of peripheral nerves to transverse field. The model demonstrates that the excitation results from the net inward current drove by the external field. A modified cable equation...
The use of very strong pulsed magnetic fields to stimulate excitable tissue has been investigated. The advantage of this method as opposed to the conventional method, electrical stimulation, is that it is noninvasive and virtually painless. However, the drawbacks are that the site of stimulation is less well defined than for electrical stimulation and repetition rates for stimuli are often limited...
