Abstract:
The excitability of cerebral cortex will change after the onset of ischemic stroke.Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can be used to regulate the excitability in cerebral hemisphere cortex and promote the motor function recovery in patients with ischemic stroke.Studies have shown that both the affected hemisphere low-frequency rTMS and the unaffected hemisphere high-frequency rTMS can promote the motor function recovery in patients with ischemic stroke.The former may be more effective than the
