Neuro-rTMS

TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a non-invasive procedure used in neurology and psychiatry to stimulate specific areas of the brain. Here’s an overview of the TMS process:

1.Preparation: The patient is seated comfortably and given ear protection (due to the clicking sound during the procedure).

2.Coil Placement: A magnetic coil is placed on the scalp, typically over the area of interest (e.g., motor cortex, prefrontal cortex).

3.Stimulation: A brief, high-intensity magnetic pulse is generated, creating an electric current in the brain.

4.Pulse Frequency: The frequency of pulses varies depending on the specific application (e.g., single pulses for diagnostic purposes, repetitive pulses for therapeutic effects).

5.Stimulation Duration: The procedure typically lasts 10-40 minutes, depending on the specific protocol.
