Abstract
The problem of generating currents of neural cells in human brain has been recently investigated, as it is believed to substitute electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) having the same therapeutic effects but realized in much safer way (painless, non‐invasive and without motor seizure). The magnetic stimulation (transcranial magnetic stimulation — TMS) uses low frequency pulse, from a few cycles per second to a few of tens, magnetic field in order to induce eddy currents in the deeper layer of brain structure.
