This table provides an overview of subject- and mapping-related characteristics, including age, handedness according to the Edinburgh Handedness Inventory (EHI), number of correctly named baseline pictures, resting motor threshold (rMT), peeling depth of the anatomical three-dimensional (3-D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence used during stimulation, discomfort during mapping according to the visual analog scale (VAS), and electric field strength. Data are provided as mean ± standard deviation (SD) and ranges.
