NCT ID NCT06328114
First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called TMS, guided by fMRI brain scans, can improve neck muscle control in people with cervical dystonia. Fifty adults with the condition will receive four TMS sessions in one day, and researchers will measure changes in neck angles and brain activity. The goal is to ease symptoms and understand how TMS affects the brain, with careful screening to minimize seizure risk.
