What is Brainautics?

<p>Brainautics makes patient-specific coil-to-head interfaces for TMS (Patent AT 527771, Linz). Planned from a head scan or MRI and 3D-printed so the coil sits in the planned pose every time it is put on.</p>

How is it different from a neuronavigation system?

<p>Optical neuronavigation tracks the coil and head with cameras during the session. Brainautics builds the planned coil pose into a physical guide, so no tracking camera is needed in the treatment room.</p>

What is the free TargetStudio™ Beam F3 Pro Calculator?

<p>Our free <a href="/article/beam-f3-calculator">3D Beam F3 Pro Calculator</a> computes F3, F4, Fz, FCz &amp; M1 with Cephalic Index (Dolicho/Brachy) adjustment, P5–P95 percentiles, Stokes depth formula &amp; PDF export.</p>

Which TMS coils are supported?

<p>The coil seat is built from the outline of your coil, including <strong>MagVenture</strong> (figure-8 and cooled), <strong>Magstim</strong>, <strong>NeuroStar</strong>, and <strong>Deymed</strong>. Tell us your model to confirm.</p>

What do you need from us and how do I order?

<p>Send an MRI-based head model or an optical 3D head scan to <strong>p•••@brainautics.com </strong>. You receive a patient-specific STEP CAD model (or printed guide). For pricing, contact a•••@brainautics.com .</p>

Is it CE-marked or FDA-cleared?

<p>Not yet. Brainautics interfaces are currently supplied for research use. They are not CE-marked and not FDA-cleared, and we make no claims about clinical outcomes. Clinics can join our early-access list.</p>

How accurate is it?

<p>Our mechanical design target for repeat placement is 0.5 mm. A validation study against optical neuronavigation is in preparation and results will be published on the Research &amp; Evidence page.</p>

Can it be used with children or autistic patients?

<p>TMS in children and autism is mainly studied in research protocols. Because a head-mounted interface moves with the head, researchers value it for participants who have difficulty sitting still.</p>

Why is it useful for multi-session daily protocols?

<p>In accelerated schedules (such as multi-session daily iTBS), re-measuring scalp marks or trackers at every visit takes time. A physical guide returns the coil to the planned seat without recalibration.</p>

What happened to Helm-T and Multistim?

<p>They were earlier names of the same products (2019–2025). Since 2026 the company and its products go by Brainautics (Linz, Austria).</p><script src="https://analytics.ahrefs.com/analytics.js" data-key="j2jehv49tqKafncn1dWtYA" async></script>
