U.S. Navy Buys Israeli Therapy System to Treat Vets
(Times of Israel) David Shamah - The U.S. Navy will be using an Israeli-developed transcranial magnetic stimulation system to treat patients with a range of psychological conditions, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), stress, major depressive disorder, and others. The Navy has ordered several Deep TMS therapy helmets made by Jerusalem-based Brainsway. The device applies brief magnetic pulses to the brain. Studies have shown TMS to be effective in a number of neurological, psychiatric and medical conditions.
