Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
The first studies of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) were performed in 1985 by Anthony Barker and his colleagues at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield, England. These studies demonstrated that TMS could induce muscle movements in the hand when applied to the cortical motor strip (Barker, Jalinous, & Freeston, 1985). These early studies provided support for a noninvasive method that could focally stimulate underlying cortical pathways and were the foundation for research into the stimulation of cortical pathways involved in a number of disease processes. Barkers original research was based on single-pulse TMS where a single stimulus was delivered to a specific brain region. Expanding on this, the technology developed to allow a device to deliver multiple stimuli over a short period of time, that is, repetitive TMS (rTMS). rTMS was shown to have lasting effects on cortical excitability that persisted beyond the actual stimulus delivery (Chen et al., 1997; Maeda, Keenan, Tormos, Topka, & Pascual-Leone, 2000). Given the ability of this treatment to modulate cortical activity in a focal way, focus was soon placed on the use of this technique to potentially ameliorate neuropsychiatric disorders, with the earliest studies attempting to treat depression (George et al., 1995; Hoflich, Kasper, Hufnagel, Ruhrmann, & Moller, 1993; Kolbinger, Hoflich, Hufnagel, & et al., 1995; Pascual-Leone, Rubio, Pallardo, & Catala, 1996). Since these first studies, numerous clinical trials of rTMS for the treatment of depression (and other psychiatric disorders) have been conducted.
