Summary

This study tests whether using brain scans to guide magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve depression treatment for people who haven't gotten better with medication. About 348 adults aged 22 to 65 with moderate to severe depression will receive rTMS tailored to their brain connectivity patterns. The goal is to reduce depression symptoms and understand how rTMS affects brain networks.
