Impact of 1Hz rTMS on Motor-Evoked Potential (MEP), Intracortical Facilatition and Inhibition
Fig. 1 Mean amplitude (±SD) of MEP to test stimulus alone after1 Hz rTMS in migraineurs and controls (values are expressed aspercentage of baseline MEP).
Fig. 2 Mean amplitude (±SE) of conditioned MEP at 2 and 10 msISI before and after rTMS in migraineurs and controls (values areexpressed as percentage of changes from test stimulus alone).
