Study Summary

Assess safety and efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of migraine with aura The hypothesis is that TMS treatments delivered to the occipital cortex of the brain can stop or interrupt the spreading cortical brain activity that causes or contributes to the migraine headache. Two TMS treatments at an intensity of \<1 Tesla for \~500 microseconds, approximately 30 seconds apart, may stop the aura and prevent the subsequent headache.
