Take Home Messages :
1. The Beam Method is used to more accurately locate the F3 or F4 EEG coordinates for prefrontal TMS.
2. Experimental research into functional connectivity has provided new information on the heart-brain axis and the relationship between depression and cardiovascular disease.There is a functional connectivity between the subgenual anterior cingulate and the vagus nerve. When the vagus nerve is stimulated the heart rate decreases.
