Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was initially applied to the motor cortex (M1) at either a fixed frequency or in patterned bursts and the consequences of these rTMS protocols were then revealed by measuring whether the amplitude of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) evoked by single pulses of TMS to M1 were changed after the application of rTMS. One of the most popular rTMS protocols that was developed using this method was theta burst stimulation (TBS)

rTMS targets specific areas of the brain that are believed to be affected by depression and other mood disorders.rTMS has the ability to selectively modulate or change activity in small areas of the brain.rTMS is used to elicit certain desired effects in the brain (i.e. excitatory or inhibitory effects) that have shown efficacy in treating various conditions or illnesses, not only depression.

rTMS involves placing a magnetic coil on a person’s head over a brain region thought to be related to the mental illness being treated. This region is then treated with several trains of magnetic pulses which produces electrical stimulation within the brain

rTMS Sessions in Progress.A repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) system is an external device that delivers repetitive pulsed magnetic fields of sufficient magnitude to induce neural action potentials in the prefrontal cortex to treat the symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD).
