The transcranial magnetic stimulation coil is a key component of a transcranial magnetic stimulation system, the spatial distribution characteristic of a transient magnetic field is determined by the transient magnetic stimulation coil, and the spatial distribution of the magnetic field is different and directly influences the distribution of an induced electric field generated in the skull, so that the depth and the precision of transcranial magnetic stimulation are influenced. Since the transcranial magnetic stimulation technology was first proposed by Barker et al in England in 1985, the coil research is more fully studied through years of development. In clinical application, a circular coil, a splayed coil and an H-shaped stimulating coil are more adopted, the circular coil has the characteristic of wide stimulation range, the splayed coil has the characteristic of good stimulation focusing, and the H-shaped stimulating coil has the characteristic of deep stimulation depth. There are also some experts who propose stimulation coils for multi-channel stimulation, but they are still in the research phase and not in clinical use.
In order to generate a sufficient induced electric field in the brain nerves, a current of about 5kA is typically passed through the stimulating coil.

Meanwhile, the focusing performance and depth of the stimulating coil during stimulation are related to the shape of a wire coil, different focusing performances and depths can be achieved by designing the shape of the coil, in order to reduce the heating problem of the stimulating coil, the resistance of the coil needs to be reduced, silver-plated or gold-plated wires can be used for winding, the sectional area of a lead is increased as much as possible, in order to effectively induce action potential of nerve cells, the inductance range of the transcranial magnetic stimulation coil generally needs to be within the range of 10 uH-20 uH, therefore, a certain requirement is made on the number of turns of the coil, the outer diameter of the conventional coil generally ranges from 70 mm to 110mm at present, the sectional area ranges from 5 square millimeters to 10 square millimeters, the heating conditions of different coils are different and are in direct proportion to the product of the sectional area and the electric conductivity of coil materials, from the equipment used clinically at present, no matter how to reduce the resistance of the coil, when the transcranial magnetic stimulation is repeated, the stimulating coil generates large heat, and a cooling system needs to be designed to cool the coil.
