Preventing misestimation of transcranial magnetic stimulation motor threshold with MTAT 2.0
Lari M. Koponen, Angel V. Peterchev
Abstract
We discovered situations in which the popular transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) motor threshold (MT) assessment software tool MTAT 2.0 [1] can produce a large misestimation of the MT. We describe the issue, study it computationally, and suggest ways to address it.
