Abstract:
1. An apparatus for generating a representation of a portion of a brain for use in transcranial magnetic stimulation (“TMS”) comprising: a non-transitory computer readable medium having a process encoded thereon including the steps of: generating an actual representation of a head surface of a head, generating an idealized representation of the head surface, weighting the actual and idealized representations with first and second weightings, respectively, wherein the first and second weightings are a function of a depth beneath the head surface, combining the weighted actual and weighted idealized representations to form an unscaled visualization surface, wherein the visualization surface is representative of a portion of the brain within the head at the depth, scaling the unscaled visualization surface based on the depth to generate the visualization surface, and providing for display of the visualization surface, and a processor configured to perform said process stored on said computer readable medium.
