As a promising alternative solution, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can non-invasively alter the excitability of and modulate the connections within the lesioned area with electromagnetic fields through a stimulating coil. Nevertheless, identifying the upper extremity area on the primary motor cortex (M1) in different patients remains a challenge due to the heterogeneous nature of the anatomy both in terms of size and location. Therefore, this study offers a method for localizing the region of interest (ROI) through an integrated method of TMS, electromyography (EMG), and optical tracking, supported by data from a clinical study, to provide an accurate and personalized ground truth for future stimulations of the same location in each patient.EngineeringLocalization of the Upper Extremity Area on the Primary Motor Cortex with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Figure-of-Eight Coil: A Clinical StudyConference PaperSCOPUS10.1109/i-CREATe62067.2024.107761682-s2.0-85215067740
