Transcranial magnetic stimulation in cognitive rehabilitation.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can generate an increase or a decrease of neuronal excitability, which can modulate cognition and behaviour. Transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced cortical changes have been shown to result in neural plasticity. Thus, TMS provides an important opportunity to gain more insight into the mechanisms responsible for the remarkable flexibility o...
متن کاملTranscranial magnetic stimulation and aphasia rehabilitation.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been reported to improve naming in chronic stroke patients with nonfluent aphasia since 2005. In part 1, we review the rationale for applying slow, 1-Hz, rTMS to the undamaged right hemisphere in chronic nonfluent aphasia patients after a left hemisphere stroke; and we present a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) protocol used with th...
متن کاملTranscranial Magnetic Stimulation Intensities in Cognitive Paradigms
BACKGROUND Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has become an important experimental tool for exploring the brain's functional anatomy. As TMS interferes with neural activity, the hypothetical function of the stimulated area can thus be tested. One unresolved methodological issue in TMS experiments is the question of how to adequately calibrate stimulation intensities. The motor threshold (M...
متن کاملEfficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation/transcranial direct current stimulation in cognitive neurorehabilitation.
Cognitive deficits are a common consequence of neurologic disease, in particular, of traumatic brain injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative disorders, and there is evidence that specific cognitive training may be effective in cognitive rehabilitation. Several investigations emphasize the fact that interacting with cortical activity, by means of cortical stimulation, can positively affect the sho...
متن کاملEffects of Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Cognitive Functions of Police Personnel with Post-Traumatic Stress
Aims: The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effects of repeated magnetic brain stimulation on cognitive functions of police personnel with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This research was applied and semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test research design with a control group. Materials and Methods: The statistical population included Naja police officer...
