SmartFocus nTMS Brain Mapping:
Preserving What's Essential in Neurosurgery
Nexstim Navigated Brain Stimulation is FDA cleared and CE marked for pre-procedural motor and language mapping. This non-invasive technique is unique for pediatrics because of the limited brain mapping options for this population.
In the news
See how one US hospital is using Nexstim nTMS motor and language mapping preoperatively to advance the standard of care at their center.
The article highlights how navigated TMS is providing a unique advantage for their youngest patients.

Indications for use:
NBS (FDA K112881): The Nexstim Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) System 5 is indicated for non-invasive mapping of the primary motor cortex of the brain to its cortical gyrus. The Nexstim NBS System 5 provides information that may be used in the assessment of the primary motor cortex for pre-procedural planning.
The Nexstim NBS System 5 is not intended to be used during a surgical procedure. The Nexstim NBS System 5 is intended to be used by trained clinical professionals.
Nexstim NexSpeech®, when used together with the NBS System 5, is indicated for non-invasive localization of cortical areas that do not contain essential speech function. NexSpeech® provides information that may be used in pre-surgical planning in patients undergoing brain surgery. Intra-operatively, the localization information provided by NexSpeech® is intended to be verified by direct cortical stimulation.
