Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
About TMS
-
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) uses a highly focused pulsed magnetic field to stimulate cortical neurons.
-
Targets stimulation of the left and right prefrontal cortex, and other targets as appropriate.
-
Modulates deeper brain regions involved in mood regulation.
-
Directly depolarizes cortical neurons and modulates neurotransmitter release.
-
Increases cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism.
These changes can result in improved mood.
