Real-time changes in corticospinal excitability during voluntary contraction with concurrent electrical stimulation.

While previous studies have assessed changes in corticospinal excitability following voluntary contraction coupled with electrical stimulation (ES), we sought to examine, for the first time in the field, real-time changes in corticospinal excitability. We monitored motor evoked potentials (MEPs) eli...
