LVAMC currently uses the NeuroStar TMS system to treat patients referred with a diagnosis of depression. Around 33% of the population receiving treatment within BH&S has a diagnosis of depression. Neuronetics is the sole manufacturer and distributer of NeuroStar. LVAMC needs additional treatment sessions to be loaded onto the NeuroStar TMS device. The sessions allow the device to operate so that referred Veterans receive TMS treatment for their depression.

NeuroStar TMS is a non-invasive neuromodulation therapy and requires no anesthesia or sedation. The repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is applied to the dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex, inducing a magnetic field, resulting in depolarization of the neurons and the modulation of the neural circuitry involved in emotional regulation and symptoms of depression. In 2008 the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first TMS device for a therapeutic indication: the NeuroStar was approved for treatment of medication-refractory depression. During the TMS treatment the patients are awake and can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. NeuroStar TMS System is a product owned by Neuronetics, Inc.
