Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Major Depressive Disorder: A Pragmatic Approach to Implementing TMS in a Clinical Practice
December 2010
 More than 4 million patients need a new option because they do not receive adequate benefit from antidepressant medication for their major depressive illness. NeuroStar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy is a nonsystemic depression option available for outpatient treatment in a psychiatrist’s office. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a pulsed magnet field to modulate brain cortical activity in the region of the brain associated with mood. NeuroStar TMS has been shown in clinical trials to be an effective antidepressant without the systemic side effects associated with antidepressant medication. NeuroStar TMS is the only TMS device cleared by the FDA for the treatment of adult patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have not benefited from prior antidepressant medication. For this supplement a panel of psychiatrists who are experts in the field of TMS was convened, and they discuss the role for TMS in the treatment of MDD and their experiences with the use of TMS in their clinical practices.
This supplement was submitted and supported by an educational grant from Neuronetics, Inc. It was peer reviewed by Current Psychiatry.
