Purpose: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can enhance aphasia
recovery. Most studies have used inhibitory stimulation targeting the right inferior frontal …

Background: Loss of fluency is a significant source of functional impairment in many
individuals with aphasia. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) administered …

Background. The role of the right hemisphere in poststroke aphasia recovery is still
controversial and the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been shown to significantly improve language
function in patients with non-fluent aphasia1. In this experiment, we demonstrate the …

Background. While prior preliminary studies have broadened our understanding of how
repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) improves language outcomes in stroke …

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 …

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

Background and Purpose. Functional brain imaging studies with aphasia patients have
shown increased cortical activation in the right hemisphere language homologues, which …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation is a powerful treatment tool for aphasia because
it can directly leverage our understanding of neural basis of language disorders and provide …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) shows promise in improving speech
production in post-stroke aphasia. Limited evidence suggests pairing rTMS with speech …
