Overview

Speculates on future applications of TMS to affect seizure control in epilepsy, suggesting innovative diagnostic and therapeutic methods.

Key Points

  • The aim is to explore the potential of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool for drug-resistant epilepsy.
  • Speculative discussion on the future of TMS applications in epilepsy treatment.
  • Consideration of using TMS-EMG and TMS-EEG to quantify seizure likelihood.
  • Examination of rTMS's targeted applications to suppress generalized or multifocal seizures.
  • Highlighting the need for reliable measures to quantify seizure likelihood from TMS-EMG/EEG.
  • Identifying the promise of rTMS for treating various epilepsy syndromes with targeted stimulation.
  • Emphasizing recent advances in bioelectronic medicine associated with TMS.
