Clinical rTMS is associated with a nominal, dose-dependent increase in glutamatergic neurometabolites, suggesting rTMS may induce Glu-dependent neuroplasticity and upregulate neurometabolism. More, larger scale studies adhering to established acquisition and reporting standards are needed to further elucidate the neurometabolic mechanisms of rTMS.
