Yes, that's a good way to think about it. TACS (transcranial alternating current stimulation) and TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) are two newer forms of treatment that use electrical or magnetic currents to stimulate specific areas of the brain. Like ECT, these treatments are used primarily for cases of severe depression or other mental health conditions that have not responded well to other forms of treatment. However, unlike ECT, they do not involve inducing seizure activity in the brain and may have fewer side effects.
