SAINT is an accelerated form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), but has some key differences.

• Speed: SAINT condenses treatment into only 5 days, versus 6–9 weeks with conventional TMS. On average, participants reached remission in just 2.6 days rather than 3.5 weeks.
• Personalization: SAINT is the only FDA-cleared depression treatment that uses functional MRI (fMRI) brain imaging to identify a personalized target for stimulation to treat major depression.
• Precision: The combination of the fMRI, a personalized target, and neuronavigation enable SAINT to use best-in-class precision targeting.
• Effectiveness: With over 400 patients treated in clinical trials, SAINT relieved symptoms for 85% of participants, with no serious adverse events.

Candidates for SAINT are adults that have been diagnosed with major depressive disorder and medications like antidepressants have not helped.

Please contact a Verified SAINT Provider to meet with a physician regarding eligibility.

At this time, SAINT is only FDA-cleared for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD).

SAINT works to gently stimulate a personalized target that is generated from an MRI scan. SAINT modifies activity in brain networks related to depression and restores mood balance.
