Many people with PD also develop problems with thinking and memory. Current medications can help control movement symptoms but often become less effective over time and may cause side effects. There is a need for additional treatment options that can address both movement and thinking difficulties in PD.\n\nRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses delivered to the scalp to stimulate specific areas of the brain. Previous research has shown that rTMS targeting the motor cortex (the part of the brain that controls movement) can improve motor symptoms in people with PD.\n\nThe purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate whether an accelerated course of rTMS targeting the motor cortex can improve movement and thinking abilities in people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. The study will enroll 40 participants aged 50 to 90 years at the San Francisco Neurology and Sleep Center.\n\nParticipants will receive 6 sessions of rTMS using the EXOMIND™ device, administered twice per week over approximately 3 weeks. Each session delivers high-frequency magnetic stimulation to the motor cortex on both sides of the brain. Participants will be assessed before treatment, at the last treatment session, and at 1-month and 3-month follow-up visits.\n\nThe primary outcome measure is the change in motor symptoms as measured by the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III (MDS-UPDRS-III) at 1 month after treatment.
