Facial nerve motor evoked potentials elicited by transcranial electrical stimulation for intraoperative monitoring

to the primary motor cortex, 500 times per session among every 3 days. The pain was dramatically reduced by single session alone. But, the effect on spontaneous pain is limited in all sessions.

In conclusion, rTMS is useful as one of the option in the treatment of intractable CD and CPSP.
