Micromagnetic Stimulation of the Mouse Auditory Cortex In Vivo Using an Implantable Solenoid System
Electromagnetic stimulation is widely used to activate the peripheral and central nervous system and treat neurological disorders. However, they have several drawbacks such as their large device size and poor focality. Recent studies have reported that micromagnetic stimulation (µMS), which...

In Vivo Magnetic Stimulation of Rat Sciatic Nerve With Centimeter- and Millimeter-Scale Solenoid Coils
Previous reports of magnetic stimulation of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) used various coil geometries, all with outer diameters larger than 35 mm, and stimulation energies in the 50 J range to evoke neural excitation. Recent reports of central nervous...

Suppression of Subthalamic Nucleus Activity by Micromagnetic Stimulation
Abstract
Magnetic stimulation delivered via 0.5-mm diameter coils was recently shown to activate retinal neurons; the small coil size raises the possibility that micromagnetic stimulation (μMS) could underlie a new generation of implanted neural prosthetics. Such an approach has several inherent...
