Brain network changes during TMS for depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) affects brain networks in people being treated for depression. If you are already scheduled to receive TMS for depression, you may be able to join and help researchers understand how the treatment works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are already receiving or scheduled to receive TMS treatment for depression
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- You speak German well enough to complete questionnaires and interviews
- You do not have any active or long-term brain or nerve diseases
- You are not pregnant
- You have a smartphone, tablet, or computer with internet access

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new type of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with severe depression that hasn't improved with multiple medications or therapy. It uses a different frequency pattern to target brain circuits.
This trial tests whether a non-surgical brain stimulation technique (rTMS) can reduce depression symptoms in adults with major depression. You would likely have several study visits that include brain scans (MRI) and treatment sessions to see if symptoms improve.
This study looks at brain “connectivity” (how different brain areas talk to each other) in people with depression. You may be able to join if you are already getting once-daily TMS to a specific brain area at Brigham and Women’s or Massachusetts General, and you can safely complete MRI scans.
This trial tests if brain scans or electrical signals can predict who will get better with TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) for depression. It is for people whose depression did not improve after trying two or more antidepressants.
This study looks at brain wave patterns in people with depression who are receiving a type of brain stimulation called rTMS. It aims to understand how the brain changes during recovery, which may help improve future treatments.
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.
