Abstract

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an electrophysiological method which is developed by the application of consecutive magnetic pulses and provides modulation of cortical excitability. Thus, its use has been investigated in various neurological and psychiatric diseases. In this review, we aim to include studies investigating the effectiveness and safety of rTMS in dystonia and to present their results.
