Transkranielle Magnetstimulation des visuellen Systems: Phosphenschwellen unter Einzel- und Doppelpulsstimulation

Abstract

Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the visual cortex: The aim of the study was to formally test the difference between single pulse and double pulse phosphenes, measuring the thresholds. Furthermore, while applying double pulses, I measured the interstimulus interval, called fusion time, where the percept of one phosphene transfers into the percept of two phosphenes. I used biphasic pulse waveform as well as monophasic pulse waveform.
