Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the human brain is a safe, non-invasive technique widely used to study patients with clinical or subclinical abnormalities of central motor pathways. TMS provides useful information on the cortical motor function of patients with movement disorders, and on the pathophysiology of their underlying motor disturbance. This chapter reviews the findings from brain stimulation studies using TMS in patients with Parkinson’s disease or parkinsonism, Wilson’s disease, dystonia, Huntington’s disease, tremor, tics, myoclonus and ataxias.

Abstract

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the human brain is a safe, non-invasive technique widely used to study patients with clinical or subclinical abnormalities of central motor pathways. TMS provides useful information on the cortical motor function of patients with movement disorders, and on the pathophysiology of their underlying motor disturbance. This chapter reviews the findings from brain stimulation studies using TMS in patients with Parkinson’s disease or parkinsonism, Wilson’s disease, dystonia, Huntington’s disease, tremor, tics, myoclonus and ataxias.
