Why Choose MRHS for MagVenture TMS

 

MagVenture's real advantage is theta burst, and getting the benefit of that requires a clinic that runs it often, not occasionally. Our clinicians use MagVenture specifically for Express TMS sessions and for the accelerated and 5-day protocols built on theta burst, so shorter chair time is standard practice here rather than an add-on. Because MagVenture is FDA-cleared for both depression and OCD, our intake looks at which diagnosis and which protocol actually fits before defaulting to one device. And with Express TMS sessions running only a few minutes of active treatment, our Midtown East location near Bryant Park and Grand Central is built around patients fitting a visit into a lunch break or a gap between meetings.

What Is MagVenture TMS Therapy?

 

MagVenture TMS therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses transcranial magnetic stimulation to reach targeted areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. A coil placed near the scalp delivers focused magnetic pulses that stimulate underactive regions associated with depression. The MagVenture system is FDA-cleared and is used to treat major depressive disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

TMS as a category has been FDA-cleared for depression since 2008, and MagVenture is one of the established systems in that field. Because the treatment works directly with brain activity rather than through medication, many patients consider it when antidepressants have not produced the results they hoped for. You can learn more about our full approach on our depression treatment page.

​

What Is Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS)?

 

One of the reasons the MagVenture system stands out is its support for theta burst stimulation, often written as iTBS (intermittent theta burst stimulation). Theta burst stimulation delivers magnetic pulses in short, rapid patterns that mimic the brain's natural rhythms. This allows the same therapeutic target to be reached in far less time than traditional TMS protocols.

For patients, the practical benefit of theta burst stimulation is a shorter chair time without changing the medication-free nature of the treatment. Theta burst stimulation is frequently used in accelerated TMS approaches, where sessions are condensed into a tighter schedule.

​

What Is Express TMS and How Long Are Sessions?

 

Express TMS is the name commonly given to MagVenture's theta burst delivery. Because iTBS compresses the stimulation pattern, an Express TMS session can take only a few minutes of active treatment, compared with the twenty to forty minutes many standard TMS sessions require. The overall appointment still includes setup and positioning, but the treatment portion itself is brief.

Shorter sessions make MagVenture TMS easier to schedule around work and daily commitments. For patients interested in condensed timelines, we also offer 5-day TMS and one-day TMS options, which rely on this same theta burst efficiency to fit a full course of care into a compressed window.

Conditions Treated with MagVenture TMS

 

MagVenture TMS is most often used for treatment-resistant depression, meaning depression that has not improved adequately with medication. The MagVenture system is also FDA-cleared for OCD. During your consultation, we will discuss which conditions are appropriate for this treatment and how MagVenture TMS fits alongside any other care you are receiving. If you are weighing different systems, you may also want to compare MagVenture with our NeuroStar TMS offering.
