Abstract: Disclosed are apparatus and methods for delivery of transcranial magnetic stimulation. The apparatus includes a TMS coil which when energized generates an electric field substantially parallel to a long axis of the coil and substantially normal to a surface of the coil. Furthermore disclosed an apparatus for delivery of TMS in which a coil is adapted to a robotic member for computer-aided control and delivery. Further disclosed are methods of TMS planning and delivery in which subject images are utilized to plan, position and orient the TMS coil for precise delivery. Disclosed also are TMS coils having unique designs to better focus and direct magnetic stimulation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for evaluating the condition of the heart muscle utilizing a single roughly collimated radiation detector which is non-critically positioned over the heart muscle. A small amount of radioactive material is injected into the bloodstream and detected during the first transit through the heart. The background radiation level is empirically derived from, and may be utilized to correct, the aforementioned first transit data. Numerous parameters affecting the heart muscle may be determined by analysis of the resultant data.
