The technique is called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and comes down to stimulating brain areas by means of a “staff-shaped device with a magnetic coil in it,” explains UMC Utrecht. A relatively small-scale study of the university hospital, with sixty patients, has already yielded promising results.
