Case in brief
A 78-year-old patient with cerebellar ataxia due to a hemorrhagic stroke received amplitude-modulated kilohertz transcranial magnetic perturbation (AM-kTMP) targeting the cerebellar vermis and paravermis. The intervention led to significant improvements in clinical ataxia scales and gait stability, with no adverse reactions reported, suggesting potential benefits of this non-invasive brain stimulation technique for cerebellar disorders.
Diagnostic / clinical pearl
Non-invasive brain stimulation, specifically AM-kTMP, may offer a novel therapeutic approach for patients with cerebellar ataxia, demonstrating improvements in motor function without discomfort.
