Abstract
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is approved for treating major-depressive-disorder (MDD), a condition that affects 1 in 7 people during their lifetime. An increasingly popular protocol, due to short session time, is intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), in which TMS pulse triplets repeat at 5Hz (a “theta” frequency). Response to TMS, including iTBS, is highly variable. We are examining a relatively inexpensive, easy-to-implement, approach to make iTBS act faster, for more people, by modifying “brain state” at the time of stimulation.
