We’ve made great strides in treating diabetes & heart disease, but the same can’t be said for illnesses of the brain—like major depression—which affects 17.3 million U.S. adults. This news about SAINT technology holds promise for so many, and couldn’t have come at a better time.

Excellent work from folks at Stanford. Can’t stress enough the importance of fMRI/MRI-guided individualized target localization in #TMS. This is such an interesting method — using the dlPFC location with functional connectivity most anti correlated with sgACC during rest.

Encouraging data in @APAPubJournals from our double-blinded RCT evaluating Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) for treatment-resistant #depression. After 5 days, 79% in the active group experienced remission from depression compared to 13% in sham. ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi…

Additionally, no severe adverse events occurred during the trial! The only side effect that approached statistical significance in the active treatment group over the sham treatment group was headache.
