First seen Dec 12, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at how transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) affects the brains of people with major depression. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure changes in brain connections before and after TMS treatment. About 54 adults aged 18-80 who are already scheduled for TMS as part of their care will participate. The goal is to understand how TMS works, not to test a new treatment.
