Treatment Pulse Application for Magnetic Stimulation

Abstract EN

Treatment and diagnosis can be made in difficult areas simply by changing the output pulse form of the magnetic stimulation device.

However, there is a limitation in the range of treatments and diagnoses of a conventional sinusoidal stimulation treatment pulse because the intensity, width, and form of the pulse must be changed according to the lesion type.

This paper reports a multidischarge method, where the stimulation coils were driven in sequence via multiple switching control.

The limitation of the existing simple sinusoidal pulse form could be overcome by changing the intensity, width, and form of the pulse.

In this study, a new sequential discharge method was proposed to freely alter the pulse width.

The output characteristics of the stimulation treatment pulse were examined according to the trigger signal delay applied to the switch at each stage by applying a range of superposition pulses to the magnetic simulation device, which is widely used in industry and medicine.
