Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been proposed as a method for selectively altering neural activity. METHOD: Studies assessing effects of “slow” rTMS, administered up to once per second, in normal people and in those with pathological conditions are reviewed. The findings are compared …
