「使用重複高頻透顱磁場刺激治療語言和吞咽障礙」研究結果發佈會
過去的國外研究顯示約有50%慢性腦中風患者將罹患不同程度的吞咽障礙。根據醫院管理局2009-2010年度報告，每年約有23,700宗腦中風個案，據估計其中大約有11,850位病患者可能在出院時仍有吞咽障礙。

香港大學教育學院言語及聽覺科學系吞咽研究所與澳洲昆士蘭大學神經性語言障礙中心主任Bruce Murdoch教授正合作進行一項研究，目的是為中風患者研發新的吞咽治療方法。

重複高頻透顱磁場刺激（TMS）是一種無創性的腦刺激方法，能夠調節大腦皮層的神經活動。近年來，Murdoch教授和他的團隊已經取得了證據，以支持此項技術適用於治療包括腦中風和帕金遜症在內的神經疾病所引起的語言障礙。

香港大學教育學院言語及聽覺科學系吞咽研究所主任及助理教授陳文琪博士將會介紹TMS的原理和研究計劃的詳情。現擔任香港大學客座研究教授的Bruce Murdoch教授將會介紹他的研究項目和結論，此研究為應用TMS治療腦中風和帕金遜症患者改善他們的語言和言語運動功能提供了支持。
