DEVICE

Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)

A single-session standard 600-pulse intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) is applied to the ipsilesional primary motor cortex.

DEVICE

Sham intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)

The sham stimulation is the same as that of iTBS, but the coil is placed five centimeters away from the scalp. Electrical field simulation shows that the setups for sham stimulation would not induce any valid cortical activation.
