No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective is to evaluate if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with theta burst frequency over dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) is an effective treatment for negative symptoms (anhedonia and avolition) in schizophrenia or depression. Other objectives are to increase the understanding of the underlying neurobiology of negative symptoms and the mechanisms for the treatment effect of rTMS.
