Transcranial magnetic stimulation allows the painless activation of cortical motor neurons and elicits responses in a wide range of muscles, termed “motor-evoked potentials.” Since its introduction in 1985, the technique has evolved as one of the most fruitful recent contributions to clinical neurophysiology.
