Neuronavigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

Model: Magstim Rapid 2

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive method used to stimulate the human brain through positioning an electromagnetic coil on the scalp, in the location of interest. TMS requires coil placement over a brain region with millimeter accuracy. A "Neural Navigator" is then used to accurately navigate a TMS coil to a brain region. We are using this unique technique to investigate the causal role of several brain regions (e.g., Extrastriate Body Area and Temporoparietal Junction) involved in body image perception and disturbance.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

Model: NeuroConn

tDCS is a method by which a weak direct current (delivered by a battery) is delivered to the brain to stimulate a designated brain area, through a pair of two large sponge electrodes. tDCS works by exciting or inhibiting neuronal activity.
