Brain imaging and stimulation study for depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses brain scans and magnetic stimulation to understand depression. It is testing how the brain responds to treatment and may help find better ways to treat depression.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have been diagnosed with major depressive disorder
- You speak English and can understand the study
- You are willing to have brain scans (MRI) and magnetic stimulation (TMS)
- You do not have metal in your body, a seizure disorder, or certain medical conditions

This study uses brain imaging to guide a noninvasive treatment called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with depression. It aims to see if tailoring the stimulation to each person's brain can improve symptoms.
This trial tests a new way to use magnetic pulses to target specific brain areas linked to depression. It aims to improve mood by stimulating a circuit that may be overactive in people with major depression.
This study tests a type of brain stimulation called theta burst stimulation (TBS) for depression. It uses advanced imaging to see how the brain responds, which may help tailor treatment.
This study tests if a type of brain stimulation called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can help treat depression in people aged 15 to 25. It involves a quick, non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to the head, and researchers want to see how it affects thinking and mood.
This trial tests whether combining fMRI brain scans with TMS (a non-invasive brain stimulation) can help treat depression more effectively. It is for adults with major depressive disorder who can safely undergo MRI.
This study uses brain imaging and stimulation to help people with depression learn how to regulate their emotions better. It aims to find out if targeting specific brain networks can improve symptoms.
