         This file is a short description of a presentation given at the
          1990 American ElectroEncephalographic Society Annual Meeting
      We wish to thank "Sgt." Paul Carlson for providing this to KeelyNet.

                      Study of the Frontal Speech Area with
                     TransCranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
                   Department of Neurology, Univ. of Minnesota
                        and MINCEP, Minneapolis, MN 55455
                                research done by
               Alvaro Pascual-Leone, Anil Dhuna and John R. Gates

      TransCranial magnetic stimulation   (TMS)  at  8  to  25  Hertz  was
      performed on 4 subjects over the frontal area.

      Over each side stimulation was performed  with  the  11  CM diameter
      coil held flat  on  the scalp and the outer edge consecutively  held
      over the 16  positions  of a 4 X 4 grid with 1.5 CM distance between
      grid points.  The anterior-inferior corner of the grid was electrode
      position F7.

      All subjects were  being  evaluated   for   surgical   treatment  of
      medically intractable epilepsy.     Intracarotid     amytal     test
      demonstrated left hemisphere speed dominance in all.

      TMS induced speech  arrest  in all patients when applied to a SINGLE
      GRID POSITION over the LEFT HEMISPHERE.

      In all subjects, this position WAS  DIFFERENT  and anterior to those
      that induced laryngeal or contralateral face and hand movements.

      This study demonstrates that TMS is capable of IDENTIFYING a frontal
      area different from the motor cortex, which when stimulated  INDUCES
      SPEECH ARREST.
