Summary

Subjects received rTMS daily on 10 consecutive weekdays (five sessions per week), during 20 minutes per session.During the rTMS session, the coil was centered flat over the right parietal cortex.

We follow the patient during 12 weeks after the 2 weeks of tms (follow-up period) to measure the depression with different rating scales.

We hypothesized that rTMS has a positive effect in the treatment of depression
