This protocol allows for the neurophysiologic assessment of the lower extremity corticospinal tract post-stroke when gait and balance are of primary interest. The main advantage of this technique is that it allows an increased probability of elici

This protocol describes the process for performing a neurophysiological assessment of the lower extremity muscles, tibialis anterior and soleus, in a standing position using TMS in people post-stroke. This position provides a greater probability of eliciting a post-stroke TMS response and allows for the use of reduced stimulator power during neurophysiological assessments.
