Focal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been applied to improve symptoms in Parkinson disease (PD) with conflicting results. However, the stimulation with H-coil has been shown to stimulate a wider cortical area compared with the standard coils, with preliminary results confirming the potential efficacy of the treatment. In this study the investigators aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of excitatory rTMS with H-coil on PD motor symptoms.
