NCT ID NCT03244852
Summary
This study aimed to improve deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment for severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Researchers wanted to use advanced brain imaging to help surgeons place the stimulation device more precisely in each patient's unique brain anatomy. The goal was to make this invasive treatment more effective by better targeting specific brain circuits involved in OCD symptoms.
