Interventions

DEVICE

repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to cause electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. To administer TMS, a stimulator equipped with a figure-8 coil will be used. Two separate coils will be used that are similar in appearance and acoustic properties. One active, unblinded, coil will be used to determine resting motor threshold (RMT) and deliver pulses for the recruitment curves; the other coil will be used to deliver rTMS. rTMS stimulation will be targeted to l-dlPFC.
