Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to neuromodulation of a patient's brain with a head coil device- The head coil device according to the invention is adapted for a functional magnetic resonance imaging, fMRI, system (2), wherein the head coil device (5) is configured to be placed on a patient's head (6) and comprises a plurality of receive coils (8) for receiving fMRI signals from the patient's head (6), and electrodes (9) and/or ultrasonic transducers (10) for neuromodulation of at least a part of the brain of the patient (7). In this way, a possibility for a well controllable and easily reproducible neuromodulation of the human brain is provided.
