Table 2: Study 3 – Pareto-optimal results for tTIS and tACS of three target regions.

From a large set of current patterns, Pareto boundaries were constructed that maximize field strength in a small target region (EROI) while minimizing the stimulated brain volume (Vol0.25) (Fig. 10). The table lists the maximum achievable EROI on this boundary (filled circles in Fig. 10). Percentages listed indicate the percentage of stimulated brain volume for the current pattern that minimizes Vol0.25 with EROI > 0.25 V/m (open circles in Fig. 10). For the hippocampus target not all stimulation types reached this value, so EROI > 0.17 was used. The value of 0.00% in the table indicates a percentage lower than 0.005.
