TMS or transcranial magnetic stimulation refers to a medical treatment that is delivered by a device that generates changing magnetic fields. There are many devices that can be used by clinicians. At present, in general, the devices are positioned over the area of the brain which has been targeted by the clinician. For depression, this area is the prefrontal cortex of the brain.
