Magnetic brain stimulation can help patients with depression and pain
Clinicians and researchers have long used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to treat and study chronic pain and severe depression. A new technology, multi-locus TMS (mTMS), will improve the approach by utilizing the novel design of magnetic transducers allowing for electronic control of all stimulation parameters – location, intensity and the orientation of the induced electric field – assisted by a robot to redirect stimulation from one part of the brain to another in just a fraction of a second.
