Trial Aim
Taurus 2 is a phase 2 trial using low intensity Magnetic Brain Stimulation (MBS). This trial is measuring the effects of magnetic brain stimulation (MBS for short) on Multiple Sclerosis (MS) symptoms. MBS can non-invasively and painlessly activate nerve cells in the human brain and can be used to change nerve cell activity. MBS is currently used to treat depression but has only been used for MS in the research setting.
