About this study

The objectives of this study are to: 1. Evaluating the Impact of iTBS on Cognitive and Physical Functions: The investigators will investigate the efficacy of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), focusing on its effects on dual-task walking abilities, balance abilities, and cognitive function. 2. Comparing Clinical Efficacy Based on Stimulation Sites: The investigators will compare the clinical efficacy of iTBS targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) versus bilateral DLPFC stimulation. This comparison aims to directly examine potential differences in therapeutic outcomes based on the site of stimulation. 3. Investigating Neurophysiological Mechanisms: The investigators plan to elucidate the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the improvements in cognitive functions and dual-task walking abilities in MCI patients facilitated by iTBS. This will be achieved using fNIRS neuroimaging of brain activity.
