Growing evidence exists from recent studies that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has a therapeutic effect in patients suffering from affective disorder. On the background of the antidepressive response after US several studies have investigated the influence of rTMS on healthy subjects' mood. Partly conflicting results are possibly due to varying study designs and stimulation parameters. Some of the collected result support the hypothesis of hemisphere specific regulation of emotion. rTMS has proved to be a valuable tool in the investigation of processes underlying the regulation of mood. Future studies should take into account a possible influence of different stimulaion parameters such as stimulus intensity, stimulus frequency and total number of stimuli, as well as carry-over effects in studies stimulating different brain regions. Further more adequate target criteria and instruments including behavioral aspects in addition to the measurement of emotions should be considered.
