Does FDA-clearance of the NeuroStar TMS Therapy system mean that all TMS devices can be used to treat major depression within the United States?
No, the NeuroStar TMS Therapy system is the first and only TMS device to be cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of major depression. The NeuroStar TMS Therapy system is also the first and only TMS device to have been evaluated in a large, multicenter, controlled clinical trial for the treatment of depression. No other TMS device can claim to be “FDA-cleared” for the treatment of depression. These devices have not been proven to be safe and effective for treating depression.
