It's placed on the scalp, and it stimulates areas of the cortex of the brain,

for depression, typically the frontal cortex. And this is a changing magnetic field.

It's about half the strength of an MRI, but it's a targeted, uh,

magnetic field to specific areas for, for figure-of-eight-type coils that we use. You may have heard

of deep TMS, which targets a much, much broader area of the brain.

Uh, we won't be going into a lot of detail on deep TMS today, but if there's questions

and time at the end, we can talk about it. So w- we use a targeted
