- Abstract
An editorial is presented on concerns related to the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for treatment of mood disorders. Topics include that rTMS has been introduced as a potential therapy for depression based on its investigational use; and that stimulation of a region of the brain that forms part of a neural network which maintains the depressive state.
