an adjustment structure that is capable of adjusting the device to the contours of an individual patient's head.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the alignment structure comprises at least one hole that permits the patient's head to be marked.

3. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an isolator component.

4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the isolator component is capable of accomplishing at least one of the following: reducing sound to the patient's ears and reducing vibration of the attachment frame.

5. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an electrical connector to send and receive data as a function of the treatment.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment structure comprises a malleable material to mold to the patient's head.

7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the malleable material hardens as a function of at least one of the following: a predetermined wavelength of light, heat, and an ultrasonic signal.

8. The device of claim 1 , wherein the alignment structure permits the treatment component to be placed in substantially the same location for each patient treatment.

9. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the adjustment structure spans the patient's nose.

10. The device of claim 1 , wherein the window includes at least one hole that permits attachment to a flexible circuit.

11. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a securing structure that includes at least one of the following: a nose bridge component, a chin strap component, and a rear strap component.

12. The device of claim 1 , wherein the attachment frame is reusable.

13. The device of claim 1 , wherein the attachment frame is rendered unusable.

14. The device of claim 13 , wherein the attachment frame automatically is rendered unusable at the conclusion of each patient treatment as a function of modification of at least one of the following: the attachment frame, the electrical connector, the alignment structure, receiving mechanism, and the malleable material.

15. The device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment component is a magnetic stimulation device used for transcutaneous magnetic stimulation treatment of the patient.

16. The device of claim 15 , wherein the magnetic stimulation device comprises an arc-shaped core spanning an angle of less than three hundred sixty degrees, and wherein the core comprises a highly saturable magnetic material having a magnetic saturation of at least 0.5 Tesla.

17. A system for placing a treatment device on a patient, comprising:

a treatment component;

a head-frame component for placing a treatment component on a patient's head, comprising:

an attachment frame that attaches the treatment component to the patient's head, wherein the attachment frame comprises a window,

a receiving mechanism that holds the treatment component to the attachment frame, and

an alignment structure that permits the treatment component to be positioned at a desired location on the patient's head,

an adjustment structure that is capable of adjusting the device to the contours of an individual patient's head;

a flexible circuit capable of being attached to the head-frame component; and

an electrical connector that communicates data as a function of the treatment component, wherein the electrical connector is in communication with the flexible circuit.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the flexible circuit comprises a magnetic field sensor to measure the magnetic field being provided to the patient.

19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the data communicated comprises at least one of the following: calibration information, detection of fault or operation of the treatment device, the patient's biological measurements.

20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the treatment component is a magnetic stimulation device used for transcutaneous magnetic stimulation treatment of the patient.

21. The system of claim 20 , wherein the magnetic stimulation device comprises an arc-shaped core spanning an angle of less than three hundred sixty degrees, and wherein the core comprises a highly saturable magnetic material having a magnetic saturation of at least 0.5 Tesla.

22. A method of placing a treatment device on a patient, comprising:

placing a head-frame component on the patient's head;

aligning the head-frame component to the patient's head;

securing the head-frame component to the patient;

attaching a treatment device to the head-frame component; and

adjusting the device to the contours of an individual patient's head.

23. The method of claim 22 , further comprising connecting the head-frame component to a computing device.

24. The method of claim 22 , further comprising causing a malleable portion of the adjustment structure to mold to the patient's head by providing at least one of the following: a predetermined wavelength of light, heat, and an ultrasonic signal.

25. The method of claim 22 , further comprising placing the head-frame component in substantially the same location as a previous patient treatment.

26. The method of claim 22 , further comprising rendering the head-frame component unusable.
