Zapping the brain to fight anorexia?
NCT ID NCT06138782
Summary
This study is testing if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, similar to one used for OCD, can help people with anorexia nervosa. Researchers will give 20 participants magnetic pulses to a specific brain area to see if it reduces compulsive thoughts about food and weight and helps with weight gain. They will also use brain scans to see how the treatment changes brain network activity.
