Summary:
A new paper led by Professor Imanuel Lerman of UC San Diego provides a review of the field of bioelectronic medicine and the most promising opportunities for life-changing new therapies and diagnostics.

… More recent developments have included noninvasive techniques, in which the nervous system can be stimulated by devices from outside of the body. Transcranial magnetic stimulation, for one, was approved for depression in 2008. Since then, its indications have expanded to include migraine-related pain, obsessive-compulsive disorder, smoking cessation and anxious depression.

… Lerman suggests bioelectronic medicine could assess brain inflammation to measure the severity of mental health disorders and be tapped to treat them with the precise dosage needed. Autonomic neurography or ANG is poised to be especially useful in clinical trials; it will objectively stratify mental health severity providing clinical trials with a precision medicine measure that can guide specific treatments.

Projects supported by U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, National Institutes of Health, Biological Advanced Research & Development Authority, as well as the Office of Science and Technology Policy and other sources of funding and advocacy have brought bioelectronic medicine to this point, Lerman acknowledges.

"There is still a lot of work ahead of us," he said, "but these next-generation systems have much potential for new avenues of individualized and adaptive treatment."

The rTMS for the average .....patient.....is set much to low .For a Adequate ,long term effect . Energy levels for my initial treatments probably average 4x the energy per pulse .. Versus the current level technology equipment..Which I was treated with for three weeks 3x a week. Which I had noticed very little to no difference. In improvement.
As compared to the previous use.....whereas the benefits, went on for a very long time...without the depression ,
Seemed like my clarity of thought..Was very good. And... no .. idk the guass setting for the respective machines
