Abstract:
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive physical therapy technique to treat depressive disorders by regulating the electrophysiological activity of neurons of specific brain regions. The treatment efficacy and safety of rTMS against depression have been proven. However, the underlying brain biological mechanism is still unclear. Besides, its clinical efficacy needs to be improved. This review emphasized the discussion on the related brain regions and brain network neural mechanisms of the anti-depressive effect of rTMS based on magnetic resonance imaging and, in addition, summarized relevant efficacy predictors, aiming to provide theoretical support for the exploration of the brain network mechanism of the anti-depressive effect of rTMS and for guiding clinical practice.
