摘要: Background Several factors may mitigate the efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over sham rTMS in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). These include unilateral (i.e., treatment only left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex [DLPFC]), suboptimal methods targeting DLPFC and insufficient intensity (based on coil-to-cortex distance).
