Abstract
For patients with epilepsy, cTBS is a safe technique when applied at a low intensity. The inhibitory effect of cTBS, a noninvasive technique, on cortical excitability in patients with IGE was determined using MEP parameters. The effect lasted at least 1 h. To our knowledge, this is the first study to assess the effect of cTBS on cortical excitability in patients with IGE. Our findings indicate that cTBS decreases cortical excitability in patients with IGE.
