TMS modulation of visual and auditory processing in the posterior parietal cortex.

3 May 2009 Audio-visual stimuli typically yield faster responses than isolated modality-specific ones. This crossmodal speed advantage depends upon efficient multisensory integration mechanisms in the brain. Here, we used repetitive transcranial magnetic ... Read more...

Malignant glioblastomatous transformation of a low-grade glioma in a child.

29 Sep 2008 BACKGROUND: The term of low-grade glioma addresses a favorable clinical outcome with indolent histological features in general consideration; however, recent studies underline the inconsistency, which originates from the accumulation of different ... Read more...

Interhemispheric transfer of phosphenes generated by occipital versus parietal transcranial magnetic stimulation.

27 Jul 2008 Phosphenes represent a perceptual effect of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) or electric stimulation of visual cortical areas. One likely neural basis for the generation of static phosphenes is the primary visual cortex (V1) although evidence ... Read more...
