  1. Repetitive Deep TMS for Parkinson Disease: A 3-Month Double-Blind, Randomized Sham-Controlled Study

    O. Cohen, A. Rigbi, G. Yahalom, N. Warman-Alaluf, Z. Nitsan, A. Zangen, S. Hassin-Baer

    Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology  ·  2018

    Clinical studies have shown the ability to treat neuropsychiatric disorders using H1 Coil Deep TMS. However, the electric field (E) distributions inside the brain induced by this coil when it is positioned on the scalp according to those clinical studies have not yet been estimated.  Objective:…

  2. Eye Tracking as Biomarker Compared to Neuropsychological Tests in Parkinson Syndromes: An Exploratory Pilot Study Before and After Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

    Cont C, Stute N, Galli A, Schulte C, Wojtecki L.

    Brain Science  ·  2025

    Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD) are becoming increasingly prevalent, necessitating diverse treatment options to manage symptoms. The effectiveness of these treatments depends on accurate and sensitive diagnostic methods.   Objective: This exploratory pilot study explores the use of eye tracking and compares it to neuropsychological…

  3. The role of the prefrontal cortex in freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease: insights from a deep repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation exploratory study

    M Dagan, T Herman, A Mirelman, N Giladi, J Hausdorff

    Experimental Brain Research  ·  2017

    Freezing of Gait (FOG) is one of the most debilitating gait impairments in Parkinson's disease (PD), leading to increased fall risk and reduced health-related quality of life. The utility of parkinsonian medications is often limited in the case of FOG and it frequently becomes dopamine resistant.…

  8. Excitatory Deep Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with H-coil as Add-on Treatment of Motor Symptoms in Parkinson’s Disease: An Open Label, Pilot Study

    F Spagnolo, M.A Volonté, M Fichera, R Chieffo, E Houdayer, M Bianco, E Coppi, A Nuara, et al.

    Brain Stimulation  ·  2013

    Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been proposed as a potentialtreatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD). H-coils, inducing deeper and wider magneticfields compared to traditional coils, may be potentially useful in PD, characterized by widespread, bilateral involvement of cortico-subcortical circuits. Objective: To evaluate…
