Description

Triangular net personalized multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation array and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of transcranial magnetic stimulation, in particular to a triangular mesh personalized multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation array and a control method thereof, which can realize personalized transcranial magnetic stimulation.
Background
Because the magnetic permeability of each part of the head is basically the same, when a magnetic field passes through high-impedance tissues such as a skull or a scalp, the magnetic field intensity of the magnetic field is hardly attenuated, and the intensity of induced current in brain tissues cannot be influenced by the existence of the high-impedance tissues, as shown in fig. 1. In the human brain, the impedance of scalp, fat and bone is high, and the induced current is proportional to the electrical conductivity of the tissue in the brain, so the intensity of the induced current is small, the excitation state of the brain pain receptor is hardly caused, and pain is not sensed. At present, transcranial magnetic stimulation technology is widely applied to brain function and cognitive science research.
The existing transcranial magnetic stimulation technology mostly adopts a single-channel coil for stimulation, such as a traditional O-shaped coil or an 8-shaped coil, and the stimulation mode can only stimulate one part at the same time. With the development of medical technology and engineering science, the single-channel magnetic stimulation device cannot meet higher requirements of transcranial magnetic stimulation on full-brain-domain multi-site synchronous stimulation, personalized stimulation modes, accurate stimulation positioning and the like, so that a multi-coil magnetic stimulation treatment mode is developed.
The study of multi-channel magnetic stimulation began in 1998 with several simple-structured single coils arranged in a certain spatial arrangement. The existing multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation technology mostly adopts square (as shown in figure 2.a), round (as shown in figure 2.b) and straight lead (as shown in figure 2.c) multi-coil arrays, and all use a certain shape as a basic unit to form a network structure. The circular coil has a gap between adjacent coils due to the shape of the coil itself, which makes it difficult to obtain high-resolution stimulation, and secondly, the size of the stimulation unit of the circular coil is fixed and unchanged, which does not allow for adjustment of the stimulation area and shape. Although the square coil and the straight wire coil solve the problem of circular coil resolution, the special shape of the coil can only stimulate in a rectangular or linear mode, and the flexibility of magnetic stimulation is difficult to meet in many cases.
In summary, the several multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation designs shown in fig. 2 have the problems of low resolution and difficult shape change due to limitations, which limits the development of multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation technology to some extent. In the process of realizing multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation, the shape, size and position of the stimulation coil are individually adjusted according to requirements, which cannot be realized by the traditional multi-coil scheme. Aiming at the current situation, the design provides a novel triangulation network personalized multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation array based on a triangulation network structure and a control method thereof.

Detailed Description
The invention provides a design scheme of a multi-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation array capable of covering the whole brain. The coil array is composed of a series of hexagonal connection nodes which can be controlled by an upper computer to control the gating direction, and a series of coil sections which form an equilateral triangle. The coil sections are connected with the side faces of the nodes to form a series of triangular net structures which are closely arranged, and the coil sections connected with the two opposite side faces of the same node form a certain angle, so that the array can form a curved surface to cover the whole brain area.
Each node in the coil array is independently controlled by an upper computer, and the upper computer can control whether the node is connected with the main stimulation circuit or not and can control the gating direction inside the node, so that the shape of the stimulation coil is controlled.
The electrified coil can generate a magnetic field around the electrified coil, the traditional transcranial magnetic stimulation coil can generate a magnetic field with the same waveform vertical to the plane of the coil after being electrified with time-varying current, and the changed magnetic field acts on the human brain to induce an induced electric field, so that nerve cells of the human brain are stimulated.

The stimulation form and the stimulation position of the coil array are flexible and changeable, and the personalized requirements on transcranial magnetic stimulation can be realized. The TMS coils are closely arranged without intervals.
The upper computer controls the node gating direction, the shape of the stimulating coil formed by the connection of the paths among the nodes can be triangular (as shown in fig. 3.a), rhombic (as shown in fig. 3.b), hexagonal (as shown in fig. 3.c) and the like, and the size of the stimulating coil can be selected by the method (as shown in fig. 3.a and 3.d, the stimulating coils have the same shape and different sizes).
