Groundbreaking Technology for TMS
Why did we choose the Magventure machine and Atlas Neuro Navigation system for our practice?
Selecting the right TMS system was a significant decision for our practice. We prioritized a system that ensures the best treatment outcomes, provides an excellent patient experience, and offers flexibility for diverse treatment protocols. The MagVenture system stood out due to its advanced technology, commitment to patient comfort, and proven effectiveness in clinical trials. It allows us to deliver both standard and accelerated TMS treatments, ensuring faster relief for our patients with the latest tools available.
We offer TMS with Atlas Neuro Navigation system that significantly enhances the precision and effectiveness of TMS by allowing for individualized and repeatable coil positioning. This approach ensures that each session accurately targets the specific brain region needed, unlike traditional TMS methods that rely on external landmarks for placement, which can result in less accurate treatment. With Neuro Navigation, you can be confident that your therapy is as precise and effective as possible.
Patients can trust that our clinic employs evidence-based, cutting-edge technology to support their mental health.
Key Reasons for Choosing MagVenture TMS with Neuronavigation technology
Confidence in Our Choice
With its proven effectiveness, commitment to innovation, patient-focused design, and versatility, the MagVenture system is the ideal choice for our practice. Its advanced capabilities enable us to offer faster, more effective treatments while ensuring patient comfort and safety.
Commitment to Research and Development
MagVenture, a Danish medical device company, has been a leader in non-invasive magnetic stimulation for over 20 years. Collaborating with top neuroscientists worldwide, MagVenture has driven innovations in psychiatry, neurophysiology, cognitive neuroscience, and rehabilitation. This strong foundation in research and evidence-based practices makes them an ideal partner for our clinic.
Proven Effectiveness
1. FDA-Approved iTBS Protocol: MagVenture was the first to receive FDA clearance for intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS). This protocol provides TMS treatments in just over 3 minutes, compared to the 18-minute, 10 Hz protocol, while maintaining similar efficacy. The THREE-D trial, published in The Lancet, demonstrated that iTBS achieved a 49% response rate and 32% remission rate.
2. Accelerated Protocol Support: MagVenture systems were used in the groundbreaking SAINT study, which achieved a 90% remission rate for treatment-resistant depression using accelerated protocols. Subsequent studies confirmed MagVenture’s ability to deliver fast, robust symptom relief.
Patient Comfort and Experience
Comfortable Treatment: MagVenture’s long pulse duration provides a gentler pulse sensation, enhancing patient comfort.
Quiet Operation: Its liquid-cooled coils minimize noise and prevent heat buildup, making it the quietest system among leading TMS devices.
Compact Design: Unlike helmet-based systems, MagVenture uses a smaller coil placed on the side of the head, reducing feelings of confinement and anxiety.
Versatility in Treatment Options
MagVenture offers a broad range of FDA-approved protocols, providing unmatched flexibility for tailoring treatments to individual needs:
iTBS Protocol: 3-minute sessions.
10 Hz Protocols: 18.5-minute or 37-minute sessions.
OCD Treatment: FDA-cleared cool D-B80 coil for treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
With over 35 coils designed for clinical and research purposes, MagVenture supports versatile treatment approaches.
Focus on Patient Safety
Non-Invasive and Well-Tolerated: TMS treatments require no sedation, allowing patients to remain alert. Most patients experience mild discomfort at the treatment site, which typically resolves after the first week.
Minimal Risks: Clinical trials with over 10,000 treatments reported no occurrences of seizures. The magnetic fields used in TMS are the same type and strength as MRIs, which have been safely used worldwide for decades.
