Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a diagnostic method well established in neurology. As some effects of TMS are similar to those of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), we looked for an antidepressant efficacy of TMS in a semi-blinded monocentric pilot study.

## Abstract We report the cases of two drugโresistant major depressed psychotic patients, who were treated with 10 sessions of transcranial magnetic stimulations (TMS) and afterwards with 10 sessions of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) without changing the concomitant neuroleptic and antidepressive
## Abstract Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a relatively new treatment modality for psychiatric patients. rTMS was demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of depression. However, longitudinal outcome studies have not yet been published. Relapse rates are higher in depre
## Background: The majority of studies investigating the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a treatment for major depression have focused on high-frequency rTMS to the left prefrontal cortex (HFL-rTMS). In addition, low-frequency right prefrontal rTMS (LFR-rTMS
