When applying transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the brain, it is desired to be as precise as possible to reach a target area in the brain. For that, neuronavigational system using individuals’ MRI scans were developed to guide TMS pulses delivery. All neuronavigational systems need coordinates of the target area to guide the TMS coil. Talairach coordinate system, which uses the Talairach-Tournoux atlas, is the most common system used with TMS pulses. In this study we investigated how an average Talairach coordinate from 50 healthy individuals is close to the actual location of the hand area of the primary motor cortex to investigate if that elicit a motor response in the hand; thus, investigating the fitness and accuracy of the Talairach coordinate system. We performed this experiment on six individuals (ages 61–82). When applying TMS single pulses to hand area with the given Talairach coordinate system adjusted with the MRI of each participant, three participants had involuntary twitch and three participants had no consistent physical response, as corroborated by electromyography of the abductor pollicis brevis and first dorsal interosseous muscles at the resting motor threshold intensity. Subsequently, by trial-and-error, the hand area was successfully stimulated on those three non-responder participants. The largest deviation from the Talairach coordinates was found to be 19.5 mm, measured on the surface of the cranium, between the true hand area and the mean Talairach coordinate. This finding implies that using generalized coordinates might be misleading when choosing the optimal location for brain stimulation.
