METHOD FOR THERAPAUTIC EXPOSURE OF TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION IN PROSOPALGIAS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A61N2/04 A61H1/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, particularly neurology. Patient's extremity muscle are examined with manual-muscular testing which aims at founding weak muscles to be used as an indicator for prescribing adequate electromagnetic exposure. For this purpose, a coil pre-connected to a transcranial magnetic stimulation apparatus with the specified electromagnetic exposure frequency and current intensity at zero level is placed above a patient's parietal area. The electromagnetic exposure parameters are gradually changed increasingly to achieve the normotonic state of the found hypotonic muscles. Further, every 15-30 seconds the muscular tonus is controlled to the moment of weakening. A criterion of the electromagnetic exposure termination is weakening of the examined muscles.

EFFECT: method provides effectiveness of the therapeutic exposure by transcranial magnetic stimulation ensured by the individually prescribed parameters.
