Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical efficacy (affective and cognitive) in patients with moderate depression between TMS over the left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) with simulated TMS, as well as clinical response when 5 sessions / week are applied vs. 2 sessions / week. All patients will receive 15 TMS sessions as initial treatment (active or sham) and respondents will participate in an TMS follow-up on the left DLPFC for three months.
