Transcranial magnetic stimulation system consists of two parts: high pressure pulse generating system and stimulating coil.Existing stimulating coil master
To be figure-eight coil, in order to accurately and effectively stimulate appointed part, to the magnetic field strength of coil generation, stimulation depth and gather
Focal power is proposed very high requirement.The degree of focus of Neural stem cell determines the stimulation selective power of magnetic stimulation system.High degree of focus
Field stimulation can be reduced, the possibility that unrelated nerve fiber is stimulated is reduced.Stimulation depth determines that magnetic stimulation system can
Keep the distance of certain stimulus intensity.Need bigger stimulation deep if carrying out effective stimulus to intracranial deep nerve fiber
Degree and higher degree of focus, however existing general figure-eight coil uses the plane coiling of uniform thickness wire rod, and depth and degree of focus is stimulated to have
The problems such as limit, causes field stimulation big, and target spot selectivity is not strong.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of figure-eight coils with higher degree of focus, promote transcranial magnetic stimulation system
Effect of stimulation, to solve the problems, such as that existing uniform thickness figure-eight coil degree of focus is insufficient.
To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:
The thicker figure-eight coils such as general, in coil back center region processing at sunk area, so that hub of a spool position has
Thickness d 1 is imitated, peripheral region keeps original thickness d2, d1 < d2.
A further improvement of the present invention lies in that: d1:d2=(0.2~0.8).
A further improvement of the present invention lies in that: sunk area is to be with two circular coil intersection points of the figure-eight coil

Specific embodiment
Below with reference to specification embodiment and Figure of description, invention is further explained.
A kind of transcranial magnetic stimulation systematic schematic diagram is provided herein, as shown in Figure 1, transcranial magnetic stimulation system generally passes through power supply
It stores energy in energy storage pulsed capacitance, energy storage pulsed capacitance is then allowed to discharge stimulating coil rapid large-current, generate wink
Between pulsed magnetic field, patient is stimulated, general stimulating coil mostly uses figure-eight coil.
It please refers to shown in Fig. 2, existing figure-eight coil is uniform thickness structure, is made of two circular coils, and electric current is flowed from anode
Enter, by two circular coils, current direction is identical in two circular coil point of intersection, coil, coil is flowed out using cathode point,
To obtain certain focusing magnetic field effect in two circular coil intersection areas.
Local enhancement type figure-eight coil proposed by the invention, by the way that thicker figure-eight coil will be waited, in the coil back side
Local dent region is processed into heart district domain, so that the electric current by hub of a spool region is closer from stimulation point equivalent distances, thus
Pulsed magnetic field local enhancement effect is generated, it is more preferable to show as coil degree of focus.It please refers to shown in Fig. 3, in hub of a spool part 11,
Coil thickness is d1;In peripheral part 12, coil thickness d2.General d2 is about 20mm, d1 10mm, by current elements position etc.
Effect is that current carrying conductor center is estimated, then is equivalent in hub of a spool region, coil current when uniform thickness structure than being equivalent to from target
Point wants nearly 5mm, and at coil surface 10mm, central area coil current is about with target point equivalent distances when uniform thickness structure coil
Central area coil current and target point equivalent distances will reduce 5mm when 20mm, d1 take 10mm, become 15mm.Sunk area model
It encloses for centered on two circular coil intersection points, radius is less than the circular coil exradius, for example, circular coil exradius
For 60mm, circular coil inner circle radius is 30mm, and sunk area radius is 30mm, then sunk area occupied area is total less than coil
The 15% of area ensure that the sunk area range interior loop current direction is identical, to the local enhancement type figure-eight coil
The electrical parameters such as inductance, D.C. resistance and heat-sinking capability influence very little, to the local enhancement type figure-eight coil in depressed area
Regional magnetic field distribution has little effect other than the corresponding central area spatial dimension in domain.The local enhancement type figure-eight coil
It is mainly characterized in that: under the conditions of same current in the magnetic field that space generates, in the corresponding central area spatial dimension of sunk area
Inside there is local enhancement effect;Other than the corresponding central area spatial dimension of sunk area regional magnetic field distribution almost with etc. thicker
Figure-eight coil is identical in the magnetic field that corresponding area of space generates.
It please refers to shown in Fig. 4, local enhancement type figure-eight coil of the present invention can be divided into two parts: being located in coil
Central part 11 of the heart district domain with a thickness of d1 and the peripheral part 12 with a thickness of d2.Target point P is in hub of a spool range line circle
Surface distance is d, then is B11 as the magnetic field caused by target point P of central part 11, peripheral part 12 is produced in target point P
Raw magnetic field is that B12, B11 and B12 are contrary, since 11 distance objective point P of central part is than 12 distance objective of peripheral part
Point P wants small, therefore the total magnetic field direction of B11 > B12, P point is consistent with B11, and size is (B11-B12).Take d1=10mm, d2=
20mm, d=10mm, by current elements position be equivalent to current carrying conductor center estimation, then central part 11 to target point P it is equivalent away from
From for 15mm, and the equivalent distances of the 8 font identical central region of thicker such as corresponding and target point P are about 20mm, by electromagnetism
Knowledge, the magnetic field approximation for having limit for length's conducting wire to generate and distance square are inversely proportional, i.e., under same current, enhanced figure-eight coil
Central part 11 generated at coil surface 10mm magnetic field about etc. thicker figure-eight coil same area coil in coil surface
1.7 times of magnetic field are generated at 10mm, and magnetic field is mainly determined by electric current in the coil of central area at 10mm, farther out due to distance,
Smaller by the other region coil influences in periphery, then the magnetic field at target point P is mainly B11.And at the corresponding center of sunk area
Other than regional space range regional magnetic field distribution almost with etc. the magnetic field phase that is generated in corresponding area of space of thicker figure-eight coil
Together, it is seen that enhanced figure-eight coil provided by the present invention is compared to the thicker figure-eight coil such as existing under same current
It can be generated in a certain range of hub of a spool region and significantly increase effect, coil degree of focus be improved, more effectively to target point
Region is precisely stimulated.
