Multimodal Image-guided Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in the Treatment of Refractory Partial Epilepsy.

Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven·interventional·Posted Dec 10, 2012·Updated May 11, 2023

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating figure-of-eight active rTMS coil, round active rTMS coil, and 1 other intervention for Epilepsies, Partial. Completed, enrolled 11 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The investigators will treat patients with fully characterized refractory unifocal neocortical epilepsy with a technique that delivers magnetic waves (transcranial magnetic stimulation, TMS) to the region that causes the epilepsy. Active rTMS applied over the epileptogenic focus will reduce seizure frequency compared with sham rTMS.
