First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new, faster version of a brain stimulation treatment called TMS for people with depression or OCD. Instead of daily sessions for weeks, participants get 10 hours of TMS each day for just 5 days. The goal is to see if this quick approach can improve symptoms and to use brain scans to figure out who benefits most. The study involves 500 adults who have not gotten enough help from standard treatments.
