Summary

This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation method called temporal interference (TI) to see if it can reduce obsessive-compulsive symptoms in people with OCD. 18 adults with moderate-to-severe OCD will receive the stimulation, and researchers will use brain scans to understand how it works. The goal is to ease symptoms, not cure the condition.
