Possibilities of using navigational transcranial magnetic stimulation as an element of radiotherapy preparation of patients with brain tumors: a pilot study
Abstract:INTRODUCTION: Navigational transcranial magnetic stimulation (NTMs) is used in neurosurgical practice to identify functionally important motor areas of the brain for the purpose of safe resection of a tumor focus. At the same time, when planning radiation therapy (LT) and determining the amount of irradiation, until recently, functionally significant zones of topical representation of skeletal muscles in the cerebral cortex were not taken into account. This study evaluates the use of mapping motor areas of the… Show more
