Research Abstract |
In order to clarify the optimal condition of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for mapping language function, we measured neuromagnetic activities during performing language tasks, and analyzed time courses of brain activity localization. According to these results, we selected candidates of TMS parameters for inducing speech delay. The TMS of the inferior frontal gyrus were performed at five different timings in picture naming task. It is observed that a subject have a specific timing for inducing speech delay.
