Abstract
Recently, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) combined with electroencephalography (EEG) has been adopted to assess cortical oscillatory activity in humans, highlighting altered neuronal oscillations in neuropsychiatric disorders[2]. Several evidence supportthe hypothesis that the major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterized by a cortical asymmetry in frontal regions and that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could be an effective neurostimulation treatment in refractory depression,modulating cortical excitability.File in questo prodotto:
