Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to Treat Parkinson: "Journal Watch Neurology August 21, 2003 Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to Treat Parkinson Disease Posted 10/06/2003 Summary Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the brain is a noninvasive, well-tolerated technique that can modify cerebral cortex excitability both locally and at remote, but functionally connected, areas (Lancet Neurology 2003; 2:145). Initial research on rTMS for motor function in Parkinson disease (PD) showed promising results (Neurology 1994; 44:892), but later research failed to confirm initial findings (e.g., Neurology 1999; 52:768) and has yielded mostly conflicting results.
