Both models include an inbuilt protocol library, a full-colour TFT display, continuous coil temperature monitoring, automatic fault detection and a movable trolley with a multi-axis stand. Both come with installation, clinical training and a 1-year warranty.
Our advice
If your caseload is mainly depression, the MS-50 gives excellent value. If you plan OCD programmes, research protocols or deeper targets, the extra ₹2 lakh for the MS-100 is worth it.
