NeuroMeasure
NeuroMeasure is a software platform to address the need for advanced methods in the mapping and quantification of motor-evoked potential (MEP) data, particularly as it relates to the human motor cortex through the use of MRI-guided Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) techniques. Despite the significant advancements in non-invasive mapping technologies, there has been a noticeable gap in the refinement of methods for generating and quantifying maps from MEP data. This gap exists amidst ongoing interest in exploring cortical reorganization in various contexts, such as skill learning and motor recovery following lesions in the corticospinal system.
Recognizing the variability in TMS-MEP map calculation and quantification methods and the absence of a readily available software solution—commercial or free—the creators of NeuroMeasure sought to fill this void. NeuroMeasure is a comprehensive software package designed to advance existing methodologies and provide valuable tools to scientists and clinician-researchers focused on studying brain plasticity in health and disease.
