Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Treatment and Prophylaxis of Chronic Migraine in Patients With no Prophylactic Treatment for the Last 3 Months (rTMS)

June 14, 2024 updated by: Tarik Mohamed Abdelnaeem, Sohag University

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Treatment of Chronic Migraine

Compared with the patients with episodic migraine those with chronic migraine have worst quality of life and more severe headache related disability we investigate Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in treatment and prophylaxis of chronic migraine
