The maximum-likelihood strategy for determining transcranial magnetic stimulation motor threshold, using parameter estimation by sequential testing is faster than conventional methods with similar precision

The resting motor threshold (rMT) is the basic unit of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) dosing. Traditional methods of determining rMT involve finding a threshold of either visible movement or electromyography (EMG) motor-evoked potentials, commonly approached from above and below and then av...
