INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether an accelerated deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) protocol in combination with cognitive training can improve cognitive abilities in older adults with Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). The study will look at whether it is safe and tolerable to use accelerated dTMS to enhance the benefits of cognitive training in older adults, and will also gather early information on the effects of accelerated dTMS on memory and other cognitive abilities.

Interventions
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) is a new form of TMS which allows direct stimulation of deeper neuronal pathways than the standard TMS. The H-coil is a novel dTMS coil designed to allow deeper brain stimulation without a significant increase of electric fields induced in superficial cortical regions. dTMS will be administered 6-8 times a day for 2-5 consecutive days.
In addition to the active H7-coil, a sham coil is included in the H1-coil helmet.The sham treatment will be administered using the H1-coil helmet 6-8 times a day for 2-5 consecutive days.
