Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation for smoking cessation study: Partial results

BACKGROUND: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a technique to modulate neuronal activity over specific brain areas related to multiples neuropsychiatric diseases. TMS and Deep TMS are promising tools to treat nicotine addiction. This prospective, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind trial,study aims to evaluate the efficacy/safety of dTMS on smoking cessation, using H-ADD coil on activation parameters over prefrontal cortex and insula bilaterally.
