The Effect of Brain Anatomy on the Efficacy of Brain Stimulation Therapy
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) with sham and then active stimulation over bicep muscle and intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) with sham and then active stimulation over finger muscle for Healthy. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether brain anatomy impacts the efficacy of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) which is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation. TMS is used to stimulate different areas of the brain and it is well tolerated and generally a safe procedure. It has been studied by researchers for 20 plus years. This brain stimulation device and technique used in this study is an investigational device that has not been approved by the U.S. FDA for treating any muscle or nerve problems.
