Non-invasive brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease: clinical evidence, latest concepts and future goals: a systematic review.
2020
Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is becoming a major public-health issue in an aging population. Available approaches to treat advanced PD still have limitations; new therapies are needed. The non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) may offer a complementary approach to treat advanced PD by personalized stimulation. Although NIBS is not as effective as the gold-standard levodopa, recent randomized controlled trials show promising outcomes in the treatment of PD symptoms. Nevertheless, only a few NIBS-stimulation paradigms have shown to improve PD’s symptoms. Current clinical recommendations based on the level of evidence are reported in Table 1 through 3 . Furthermore, novel technological advances hold promise and may soon enable the non-invasive stimulation of deeper brain structures for longer periods.
