After the rTMS treatment, the robotic rTMS group showed a trend-level decrease in the BDI scores (z = − 1.95, p = 0.05), whereas the manual rTMS group did not (z = − 1.48, p = 0.14).

SPECT analysis showed a marginal significance in the rCBF increases in the left DLPFC in the robotic rTMS group (z = 1.86, p = 0.06), but not in the manual rTMS group (z = 0.52, p = 0.60).
