What is CAR T-cell therapy and how can it be used on brain tumours? What is the cost of such a therapy?

The most commonly used form of magnetic brain stimulation in clinical practice is transcranial magnetic stimulation (known as TMS). This makes use of Faraday's law of induction (if you remember from physics) to create current flow within the brain, which, in turn, excites the neurons (mostly cortical interneurons) over where the magnetic stimulation is applied. Magnetic stimulation by itself is not considered a treatment option for brain tumours. However, as an example, we have used transcranial magnetic stimulation prior to brain tumour surgery.

There are some known risk factors that may predispose a person to an increased risk of developing a brain tumour. However, the contribution of these risk factors to the overall risk can be quite small. Risk factors are grouped into those that are modifiable and those that are not.
