magnetic field stimulation (MFS) is a novel technique for stimulating the nervous system non-invasively, which can activate deep neural structures via induced electric currents, without pain and discomfort. Also, several clinical trials including placebo-controlled studies have shown that MFS of the pelvic floor and sacral roots is effective for overactive bladder (OAB). MFS induces inhibitory effects on detrusor overactivity in a similar manner to electrical stimulation, with significant clinical advantages. MFS of the sacral nerve roots could be a promising alternative treatment for OAB.
