Transcranial magnetic stimulator DuoMAG MP

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can be used by neuroscientists to measure the activity and function of specific brain circuits in humans. Through the placement of an electromagnetic coil on a patient's head, the TMS system can generate a very strong magnetic field that passes through the scalp and into the individual's targeted brain regions in order to induce action potentials in the subject. The most robust and widely accepted use of TMS is in the measurement of the connections between the primary motor cortex and a muscle to evaluate damage in patients suffering from neurological diseases and conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, movement disorders, motor neurone disease, migraine, and other injuries and disorders that affect the facial and cranial nerves and the spinal cord. For non-invasive brain stimulation studies concentrating on research in this area, Brainbox is proud to offer the powerful DuoMAG MP single-pulse, monophasic stimulator. The DuoMAG MP The DuoMAG MP is a powerful, and user-friendly TMS machine, capable of delivering high energy pulses to a subject at an unrivalled 2Hz frequency. The DuoMAG capacitor delivers pulses of up to 700J from the highly-portable stimulator module, with the compact design allowing for the device to be mounted on a desktop or on a proprietary cart device (pictured) to allow for ultimate ease-of-movement between laboratories. For further flexibility of control, the DuoMAG MP can also be controlled by a number of third-party applications by means of an API, which the Brainbox team can help in setting up.
