The BrainsWay Deep TMS™ System is indicated for the treatment of depressive episodes and for decreasing anxiety symptoms for those who may exhibit comorbid anxiety symptoms in adult patients suffering from Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and who failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from previous antidepressant medication treatment in the current episode.

The BrainsWay Deep TMS™ System enables direct non-invasive activation of deep brain structures. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive technique used to apply brief magnetic pulses to the brain. The pulses are administered by passing high currents through an electromagnetic coil placed adjacent to a patient's scalp. The pulses induce an electric field in the underlying brain tissue. When the induced field is above a certain threshold and is directed in an appropriate orientation relative to the brain's neuronal pathways, localized axonal depolarizations are produced, thus activating neurons in the targeted brain structure.

The BrainsWay Deep TMS™ System is composed of the following main components:

1. Cart
   a) TMS Neurostimulator
   b) Cooling System
   c) Positioning Device
2. Helmet
   a) Aiming Apparatus (i.e., ruler/grid)
   b) Electromagnetic Coil (H Coil)
   c) Cap

The BrainsWay Deep TMS™ System is identical to the previously cleared BrainsWay Deep TMS™ Systems.

The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to enable modifications to the device software and expansion of the treatment stimulation protocols, to include the accelerated iTBS stimulation protocol.
