USE OF TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION TO MODULATE PERMEABILITY OF THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER |
摘要 |
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is used to modulate permeability of the blood brain barrier in a transient, safe and non-invasive manner. A conventional or deep TMS coil may be placed on a head in a vicinity of a tumor, for example. A series of magnetic pulses is provided to the brain with a tailored stimulation protocol. In one of many possible clinical applications, a pharmaceutical substance may be introduced during a time frame before, during or after providing the magnetic pulses to treat a tumor in the brain. |

1. A method for modulating permeability of the blood brain barrier, the method comprising:
providing a system for transcranial magnetic stimulation; placing said system on a scalp; and providing a series of magnetic pulses to the brain via the system, said providing done in a range of at least 0.2 Hz stimulation frequency, at least 80% of resting motor threshold stimulation amplitude, and at least 100 stimulation pulses. |
