Daily repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) improves mood in depression

Abstract Converging evidence points to hypofunction of the left prefrontal cortex in depression. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) activates neurons near the surface of the…

Effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on forced swimming test

Abstract Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and electroconvulsive shock (ECS) have been shown to affect mood in health and disease. Evidence to date has demonstrated…

Right versus left prefrontal transcranial magnetic stimulation for obsessive-compulsive disorder: a preliminary investigation
