Background: Trans Cranial Magnetic stimulation is a novel technique for non-invasive cerebral stimulation that is finding many application for neurologic and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson disease and depression. The Physical laws that underlie the TMS permit further applications such as drug delivery. As a matter of fact according to the Biot Savart and Maxwell Faraday electromagnetic laws it is possible to concentrate magnetic substances like gadolinium in specific areas. Case Description: A 67 year old woman underwent TMS for drug resistant depression. Casually she underwent to gadolinium enhanced MRI in the same day as she performed TMS. The result was of Gadolinium concentration on the same side of stimulation.

Background: Trans Cranial Magnetic stimulation is a novel technique for non-invasive cerebral stimulation that is finding many application for neurologic and psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson disease and depression.

Case Description: A 67 year old woman underwent TMS for drug resistant depression. Casually she underwent to gadolinium enhanced MRI in the same day as she performed TMS.
