Summary

This study evaluates de efficacy of 5Hz repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) applied on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in patients with binge eating disorder.

Detailed description

Binge Eating Disorder (BED) affects a significant percentage of de national population (1.4%) in a portio 2-1 in woman compared with men, the repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a neuromodulation technique, which allows us to induce brain electrical activity by plating magnetic fields and it has been proven that at 10Hz it has an effect of improvement in the craving of food.
