Resumen

Since magnetic stimulation can activate brain tissue with optimum intensity and frequency, it demonstrates great potential for many medical applications, procedures, and treatments. For example, it makes it easier to reach a deeper region beneath the skin without causing any trauma or pain. In addition, magnetic stimulation does not leave any residues in the operated tissues. However, the magnetic fields generated by typical and conventional coils are uniform around their targets, and their magnetic stimulation performance still needs improvement. Thus, an innovative coil that has a quad coil form was proposed for transcranial magnetic stimulation, which makes it possible to shrink the irritative zone and strengthen the stimulation intensity, thus achieving higher magnetic stimulation performance.
