    摘要: To generate operational parameters for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), training data that includes indications of previously conducted TMS sessions is generated. A machine learning model is trained using the training data. The trained machine learning model is applied to one or more parameters related to an individual to generate operational parameters for a TMS session. A device for applying TMS to conduct a TMS session with the individual is operated in accordance with the generate operational parameters.

    摘要: A method for disrupting mitochondrial function in cells includes causing one or more magnets to oscillate along at least a first axis of rotation and a second axis of rotation substantially orthogonal to the first axis of rotation, so as to generate an oscillating magnetic field. To this end, the method includes selecting the first axis of rotation, applying an oscillation pattern along the first axis of rotation, the oscillating including a ramp-up period for an oscillation frequency, a ramp-down period for the oscillation frequency, and an inactive period following the ramp-down period, selecting the second axis of rotation, and applying the oscillation pattern along the second axis of rotation. The method further includes applying the oscillating magnetic field to a tissue comprising cancer cells to trigger apoptosis in the cancer cells.
