Transcranial magnetic stimulator NEURO-MSX

assessment of central and peripheral motor pathways diagnostics of neurological disorders compatible with most of EMG systems wide choice of coils DESCRIPTION Magnetic stimulation has proved effective in the assessment of central and peripheral motor pathways. The alternating magnetic field generated by the stimulator easily passes through clothes, skin, scalp, bones, and meninges. Reaching the conductive tissues of central and peripheral nervous systems, this field creates an alternating electric field which in turn induces an electric current that can activate the neurons as during electrical stimulation. However, if compared to electrical stimulation, magnetic stimulation does not cause painful sensations that usually occur due to the activation of skin receptors under the electrode and does not require additional preparation time. Using an EMG system during stimulation allows recording motor evoked potentials (MEPs) from the muscles innervated by those neurons. This principle underlies a variety of diagnostic tests such as central motor conduction time, cortical silent period, and others. Diagnostics of neurological disorders Neuro-MSX magnetic stimulator allows for the quick and painless study of central and peripheral motor pathways which is important for early diagnostics, assessment, prognosis, and monitoring of various neurological disorders including multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, movement disorders, motor neurone disease, and spinal cord injuries.
