摘要：
Method for a deep and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of an individual by means of magnetic pulses applied at least to a region of the scalp of the individual, said region being at least the bilateral prefrontal cortex, preferably the bilateral prefrontal cortex and the insula, the method comprising the steps of determining a threshold intensity of said magnetic pulses by applying to the individual one or more reference magnetic stimulations and determining a reaction of the individual to said reference stimulation, wherein said reaction corresponds to a right thumb movement and repeatedly applying a magnetic stimulation for at least 80 trains per session for a duration not exceeding 2 seconds each with a time interval between a train application and the next one not less than 20 seconds, wherein said magnetic stimulation has a frequency of at least 18 Hz with an intensity of stimulation at least 120% of the threshold intensity.
