There has been a steady increase in recent years of Americans experiencing depression. New treatment might help with that.
Scientists at Stanford University are touting a new method to treat depression by correcting the abnormal flow of brain signals.
Meanwhile, 17.8% said they are currently being treated for depression. In 2015, 10.5% of people said they had depression. This treatment is known as transcranial magnetic stimulation , and Stanford scientists say it changes the brain to"dissipate depression.""The leading hypothesis has been that TMS could change the flow of neural activity in the brain," said Anish Mitra, a postdoctoral fellow in psychiatry and behavioral sciences."But to be honest, I was pretty skeptical. I wanted to test it.
The study also found that backward streams of neural activity within the brain could be used as a biomarker to diagnose depression.
