Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of repetitive TMS in reduction of depressive symptoms in patients with bipolar disorder. In a randomized, single blind clinical trials, 30 patients with bipolar disorder in Atieh Neuroscience center will be assigned to receive bilateral TMS and unilateral TMS, daily; for 20 sessions. The depressive and anxiety symptoms and quality of life will be assessed before the treatment (pre test) during the treatment (10th session), and after the treatment (post test). QEEG apply before and after rTMS in all subjects.
