Physiological Processes Underlying Short Interval Intracortical Facilitation in the Human Motor Cortex

Physiological Processes Underlying Short Interval Intracortical Facilitation in the Human Motor Cortex

Short interval intracortical facilitation (SICF) may be elicited by a paired pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigm, whereby a suprathreshold first stimulus (S1) precedes a perithreshold second stimulus (S2). Other facilitatory circuits can be probed by TMS such as intracranial facil...
