Prospects for the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation in the rehabilitation of children with brain tumors. Literature review

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a neuromodulation technology capable of targeted stimulation and inhibition of cortical areas of the brain. Currently, TMS has established itself as a method with proven effectiveness in the treatment of some psychoneurological disorders in children. In this regard, there is increasing interest in studying new options for the use of TMS in patients with acute and chronic neurological deficits. In children with brain tumors, up to 90 % of neurological disorders are determined. However, to date, there is insufficient data on the use of TMS technology in pediatric oncological neurorehabilitation.
