Non-invasive brain stimulation technology may enhance the human system's ability for rapid and adaptive decision making. Read More
Repetitive transcranial memory stimulation applied to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex modifies the negative effects of fear memories. The findings could have implications for the treatment of PTSD. Read More
Low-field magnetic stimulation (LFMS), a new, non-invasive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation technique, may help improve neurological symptoms following concussion. Read More
Applying repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the prefrontal cortex helps improve performance in working memory tasks for both young and older subjects. The findings could provide a potential new treatment option for those suffering from Alzheimer's disease and other memory-related problems. Read More
A new study combines hundreds of brain scans of patients with OCD and pinpoints problems with error processing in the brain that leads to repetitive behaviors. Read More
When it comes to using rTMS to treat neurological and psychiatric conditions, less might be more, researchers say. The study reports fewer stimulations are required to prevent neurons from ceasing to respond. Read More
Personalized rTMS treatments could be revolutionary in helping combat neuropsychiatric disorders, researchers say. Read More
According to researchers, 40% of people with treatment resistant depression who received rTMS no longer had suicidal thoughts following treatment. Read More
Researchers report intermittent theta burst stimulation can help to alleviate the symptoms of major depressive disorder. 49% of patients who received the treatment reported a significant decrease in symptoms, with 32% reporting remission of depression. Read More
A new study reports dTMS can help to reduce fatigue symptoms in those with multiple sclerosis. Read More
Using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, researchers report they are able to strengthen or weaken the processing of negative emotions. Read More
Researchers report repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can help to reverse some of the signs of Alzheimer's disease. So long as patients receive the treatments, cognitive decline appears to halt and, in some cases, cognitive abilities improve. Read More
