For TMS/fMRI experiments, to acquire functional images without artifacts, general recommendations have been proposed. In order to apply TMS pulses in a multichannel Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation system integrated with the new constructed TMSMR 28- channel RF coil, we have explored the different options and artifacts that can be generated depending on when the TMS pulses are applied with respect to the sequence timing. As conclusion, we propose a method using an RF pick up loop to assure that the delivery of the TMS pulses are not close to the EPI navigators or the imaging gradients.
