Abstract:
The incidence of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is increasing year by year,and early intervention and treatment for VCI can effectively reduce the occurrence of vascular dementia.The application of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) opens a new window for the treatment of VCI.This article reviews the efficacy,biological mechanism and safety of rTMS in the treatment of VCI.
