Right-sided 1-Hz Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Versus Left-sided Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) in Patients With Depression

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that uses pulsed magnetic fields to activate or suppress specific brain regions. It is used to treat various conditions, including major depressive disorder, by inducing small electrical currents that stimulate nerve cells.

Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) is a form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) used to modulate brain activity. It involves delivering brief bursts of magnetic pulses to specific brain regions, typically the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)
