Transcranial Magnetic Treatment (TMS) in Unipolar Depression
Transcranial Magnetic Treatment (TMS) in Unipolar Depression

 depression, and to determine which form of rTMS is most effective for depression, when used
 in combination with antidepressant medication.
Patients will be assigned for 4 treatment arms, receiving either left high frequency plus
 right low frequency, or left high frequency plus right sham, or left sham, plus right low
 frequency, or left sham plus right sham treatment. All subjects will receive treatments for
 10 days and will be followed for another 4 weeks.
