Combining non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation with neuroimaging and electrophysiology: Current approaches and future perspectives (2016, positive): “…additionally depends on the pulse form (e.g. monophasic or bi-phasic) and the direction of the electrical current induced in the brain tissue (Pascual-Leone et al., 2000; Walsh and Cowey, 2000) and, in case of repetitive TMS (rTMS), the precise temporal pattern of pulses (Fitzgerald et al.,…”

Alzheimer' Disease as a Disconnection Syndrome? (2003, methodology): “” The combination of TMS with neuroimaging techniques offers a tool for assessing the state of the functional connectivity by studying the distributed effects of TMS on the neuronal networks involved in a specific behavior (for a review on TMS, see Pascual-Leone et al., 2000). For example, Mottaghy ”

Transcranial DC stimulation (tDCS): a tool for double-blind sham-controlled clinical studies in brain stimulation. (2006, background): “In the last few years, non-invasive brain stimulation emerged as a powerful tool to study and to modulate human brain function (Cohen et al., 1998; Pascual-Leone et al., 2000; Paulus, 2003; Wassermann and Lisanby, 2001).”

(2005, methodology): “The functional significance of the occipital activation during Braille reading in the early blind has been further evaluated using single-pulse TMS to obtain information about the timing (chronometry) of information processing (Pascual-Leone et al. 2000, Walsh & Pascual-Leone 2003).”

Optimizing Functional Accuracy of TMS in Cognitive Studies: A Comparison of Methods (2009, background): “Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) allows controlled manipulation of brain activity, with a quantifiable impact on behavior or cognition (Sack, 2006; Hallett, 2000; Pascual-Leone, Walsh, & Rothwell, 2000; Pascual-Leone, Bartres-Faz, & Keenan, 1999), and is now a wellestablished tool for induc”
