When treatments don't work to treat depression, it often indicates a more severe illness. In this infographic, we present a study showing a relationship between number of treatments tried and reduced chances of remission with rTMS.

Does handedness matter when considering rTMS for depression? Prior research indicated that perhaps left-handed people might improve more with rTMS. However, research suggests that left and right-handed people improve equally from rTMS.

Early improvement during a course of rTMS is highly predictive of a good outcome by the end of treatments. However, there are people who may respond to the treatment later on in the course.
