The intensity of continuous theta burst stimulation, but not the waveform used to elicit motor evoked potentials, influences its outcome in the human motor cortex

Responses to continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) applied to the human primary motor cortex are highly variable between individuals. However, little is known about how to improve the after-effects of cTBS by adjusting the protocol characteristics.
