Abstract：Post-stroke aphasia recovery is affected by the hemispheric dominance of language lateralization and the dynamic changes after stroke. Theta burst stimulation is a novel model of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, which has a shorter treatment time and a stronger treatment effect. It has been proven as a beneficial method to aphasia recovery after stroke. The mode, timing and location of the stimulation were introduced, and assessments and the follow-up timing were discussed, based on the potential mechanisms of aphasia recov-ery in the filed of hemispheric dominance.
