Background and objectives: This case report investigates the application of intermittent Theta-Burst Stimulation (iTBS) in aphasia rehabilitation following a right hemisphere stroke. Case presentation: A 52-year-old Chinese male with Broca's aphasia post-stroke was treated with iTBS. His progress was evaluated using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and behavioral assessments. Significant language function improvement was noted, with fNIRS showing increased activation in right hemisphere language-related cortical areas and altered functional connectivity patterns. Conclusion: The findings indicate that iTBS is effective in facilitating language recovery in right hemisphere stroke-induced aphasia, highlighting the importance of personalized neurorehabilitation strategies. Despite focusing on a single case, the study contributes to understanding neural plasticity mechanisms in right hemisphere stroke-induced aphasia. |
