| Description | we would like to present our results concerning the safety and efficacy of accelerated transcranial magnetic stimulation (aTMS) in patients with schizophrenia. The level of evidence for usual (nonaccelerated) rTMS protocols decreased from B (probably effective) to C (possibly effective),1 and new innovative protocols are needed. This is the first study to use aTMS to assess the predominant negative symptoms in schizophrenia. |
