Synchronized transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) is a new modality to reduce symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD). sTMS uses rotating neodymium magnets to deliver low‐field stimulation matched to the individual alpha frequency (IAF). A previous multisite study showed that sTMS significantly reduced MDD symptoms in the per‐protocol sample. To this end, we evaluated clinical features associated with optimal sTMS outcomes.
