ABSTRACT
The aim of the presented work is to provide an overview on the clinical data of the promising convulsive brain stimulation technique, the magnetic seizure therapy (MST). We review the advantages and disadvantages of MST, focusing on rationale, development and current treatment procedure. We also provide a summary of the current literature including clinical trials and case reports found in the PubMed database. Furthermore, we consider effectiveness and side effects, emphasizing on crucial issues to be addressed for a better understanding of this potential new treatment option in treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
