Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the effects of non-invasive neuromodulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation on brain function in individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). This study is focused on the mechanism(s) by which brain stimulation might change the functioning of regions implicated in OCD, and thereby inform possible future therapeutic uses.

Conditions

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial Magentic Stimulation

This is a form of mild brain stimulation delivered noninvasively. The device delivers pulses of magnetic energy through a coil placed on the scalp. The treatment takes 41 seconds, and takes place for ten sessions, Monday through Friday, over the course of two weeks
