SAINT® TMS

Accelerated 5-day TMS guided by a functional MRI brain scan

A 3-D brain with a specific area highlighted and marked as a "personalized target."

SAINT® is next generation TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation). It is faster and more precise, using machine learning to personalize your treatment.

SAINT® uses fMRI neuroimaging guided by a proprietary algorithm to find the exact spot to relieve your depression. Then, our technicians use the SAINT® system to deliver gentle magnetic pulses to that target over just 5 days — instead of weeks.
