Quattro-Pulse stimulation – a new patterned rTMS for inducing LTP/LTD-like plasticity:
A new technology platform enables the combination of ultra-fast QPS (Quattro-Pulse Stimulation) and online TMS-EEG in one device for the first time.
This QPS device can be driven on a standard 1-phase power supply and can apply biphasic Quadri-Pulses, Theta Bursts and rTMS. The selectable burst sequencing allow ultra-high frequency bursts with up to 700Hz.
Features
ultra-high speed bursts with up to 666Hz
up to 4 pulses in a burst package
same pulse lengths in all stimulation modes and with all coils
no power roll-of within the bursts
biphasic rTMS, Theta Bursts and QPS protocols within one device
online-EEG feasible
