Abstract
An electromagnetic coil assembly for inducing electromagnetic fields in a head region of a treated subject, the assembly comprising windings configured to define an applicatory coil portion configured for placement in close proximity to the head to induce the electromagnetic fields, and an elevated coil portion passing relatively remote from the head and configured such that electromagnetic fields thereby produced are generated substantially remote from the head, thereby allowing directing the electromagnetic fields generated by the applicatory coil portion substantially accurately to desired inner regions of the head. A support structure is used to enclose and immobilize at least a portion of the windings, while enabling elastic movement of other portions of the windings that are not held by the support structure, to thereby enable size adjustment of the coil to fit over a region of a head of the treated subject.
