In brief
This study validates repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a noninvasive language mapping tool in healthy children aged 5-18 years. The research establishes baseline normative data for bilateral cortical language localization using 5 Hz stimulation during visual-naming tasks, addressing a critical gap in pediatric neuroimaging literature.
Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a potentially effective, noninvasive tool for language mapping. However, there is a paucity of data in pediatric patients. In this study, we aimed to map language sites in healthy pediatric participants with navigated rTMS. Children aged 5 to 18 years underwent bilateral language mapping. Stimulation was delivered at 5 Hz during visual-naming …
