Magnetic stimulation of the central and peripheral nervous system can now be considered a common method in clinical neurophysiology for assessing the conduction status of motor efferent pathways and peripheral nerves. Introduced in the mid-1980s as an improvement over direct electrical stimulation, it is based on the application of rapidly changing and high-intensity magnetic fields (up to 2 T), which induce an electric field in brain and nerve tissues through electromagnetic induction <ref name=":0">Barker, A.T., Jalinous, R., Freeston, I.L.
