Summary

The goal of this study is to determine whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an effective treatment in Parkinson's disease patients with depression or cognitive impairment. The study consists of seven total visits to all. Compensation will be provided for each visit.

Conditions

  • TMS Protocols in the Treatment of PD

Interventions

DEVICE

repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)

Each patient will be given 5 treatment sessions per week for 2 weeks (a total of 10 sessions).In each rTMS conditioning session,1200 pulses of stimuli at an intensity of 100% rest motor threshold (RMT) will give over the left and rigt DLPFC.Each session is 45 minutes long and will be consisted of 10Hz stimulation trains (active) over the left DLPFC and 1Hz over the right DLPFC,Interval of 5 minutes each side.During rTMS blocks, the coil will be oriented tangential to the surface. For sham control rTMS blocks, the coil will be oriented 90◦ away from the scalp so that no pulses perturbed underlying neural tissue.
