Abstract
Transcranial magnetic stimulation recently has emerged as a therapeutic tool in neurology and psychiatry, with contradictory results. Central pain, a major chronic pain syndrome affecting millions of people worldwide, has been the focus of a few studies. Although transcranial magnetic stimulation has no role in the chronic management of such pain, it has potential as a screening procedure for the much more effective extradural cortical stimulation, a minimally invasive neurosurgical procedure that has emerged as the technique of choice in treating these patients.
