Research on the neural substrate of aphasia recovery has consistently increased since the
advent of functional neuroimaging. The evidence from therapy-induced aphasia recovery …

Background: Functional neuroimaging studies with poststroke aphasia patients have shown
increased activation of the unaffected hemisphere, which hypothetically reflects a …

This review of our research with rTMS to treat aphasia contains four parts: Part 1 reviews
functional brain imaging studies related to recovery of language in aphasia with emphasis …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can generate an increase or a decrease
of neuronal excitability, which can modulate cognition and behaviour. Transcranial magnetic …

Methods: Nine patients received 10 days of 1-Hz rTMS (Monday through Friday for 2 weeks).
We assessed naming performance before and immediately after stimulation on the first and …

Purpose: In this study, we examine whether an excitatory repetitive transcranial magnetic
stimulation (rTMS) protocol called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) applied to the …

Introduction Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a therapeutic reality in
post-stroke rehabilitation. It has a neuroprotective effect on the modulation of neuroplasticity …

Background Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown promising
efficacy in improving the language functions in poststroke aphasia. However, randomized …

Aphasia is a common result of stroke, affecting over one million Americans. Currently,
intensive speech therapy is the mainstay of treatment, although its efficacy has been …
