AB  - Background: Cortical function is dependent on the balance between excitatory and 
      inhibitory influences. In the human motor cortex, surrogates of these 
      interactions can be measured in vivo, non-invasively with double-pulse 
      transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). To compare results from data acquired 
      with different available setups and bring data together, it is inevitable to 
      determine whether different TMS setups lead to comparable or differential 
      results. Objective: We assessed and compared short intracortical inhibition 
      (SICI) and intracortical facilitation (ICF) testing four different experimental 
      conditions. Methods: SICI and ICF were studied with different stimulators 
      (Magstim BiStim(2) or MagVenture MagPro X100), waveforms (monophasic or 
      biphasic), current directions (anterior-posterior or posterior-anterior) at 
      interstimulus intervals (ISIs) of 1, 3, 10, 15 ms. Results: We were not able to 
      detect differences for SICI and ICF, when comparing the tested conditions, except 
      for 3 ms SICI in which the anterior-posterior current direction led to stronger 
      modulation. Correlation analysis suggested comparability for 3 ms SICI for the 
      Magstim monophasic posterior-anterior condition with both tested MagVenture 
      conditions. Conclusions: 3 ms SICI data sets obtained with two different, 
      commonly used stimulators (Magstim BiStim(2) or MagVenture MagPro X100) with 
      conventionally used stimulation parameters are largely comparable. This may allow 
      the combination of data sets in an open science view.
