Table 1. Summary of magnetic stimulation response in both neuronal 2D cultures and anesthetized rats.

2D culture (N = 30) Rat (N = 9)
Responded to stimulation Electric Threshold (Normalized to maximum inducible field) Responded to stimulation Electric Threshold (Normalized to maximum inducible field)
Cross coil 50% 90±10% 89% 70±10%
Single coil 13% 120*±20% 44% 90±10%

All distribution errors are standard error (SE). % denotes fraction of the maximum attained rotating electric field.

*

When using only our home made stimulator as the single coil we can induce non-rotating electric fields that are up to 2 times stronger than the maximum rotating electric field.
