Efficacy of Adjunctive Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Our study demonstrated that dTMS targeting the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and medial prefrontal cortex significantly improved obsessive-compulsive, anxiety, and depressive symptoms, with faster response rates and fewer sessions compared with previous trials, suggesting that dTMS may serve as an effective early intervention for a wider range of obsessive-compulsive disorder patients.
