Theta-Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.
CONCLUSIONS: iTBS appears to be a promising new treatment for PTSD. Most clinical improvements from stimulation occurred early, which suggests a need for further investigation of optimal iTBS time course and duration. Consistent with previous neuroimaging studies of TMS, default mode network connectivity played an important role in response prediction.
