MRI-guided brain stimulation for generalized anxiety disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses a type of non-invasive brain stimulation guided by MRI to treat generalized anxiety disorder. It aims to see if this faster treatment can help reduce anxiety symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You are right-handed
- You have at least a junior high school education and can understand the study

This study tests a gentle brain stimulation method called High-Definition Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (HD-tES) to see if it can help reduce anxiety symptoms in people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It uses small electrodes on the scalp to deliver mild electrical currents to areas of the brain involved in anxiety, without surgery or major side effects.
This study tests whether adding a gentle brain stimulation technique (transcranial alternating current stimulation) to mindfulness therapy can help reduce anxiety symptoms in people with generalized anxiety disorder. It aims to see if this combination is more effective than mindfulness alone.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tACS) can help people who have both generalized anxiety and long-term sleep problems. It aims to see if this treatment can reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people with both anxiety and insomnia. Treatments target a specific brain region to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
This trial tests a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called cTBS (continuous theta burst stimulation) on two brain areas linked to anxiety. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce anxiety symptoms in people with generalized anxiety disorder.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (cTBS) to treat Generalized Anxiety Disorder. You will receive navigated stimulation sessions, and no surgery or medication is used.
