MRI-guided navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) improves treatment outcomes for military personnel who suffer from combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), researchers have reported.
Study findings suggest that “navigated TMS can be an efficacious addition to behavioral therapy for combat-related PTSD,” according to a team led by Peter Fox, MD, of the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. The results were published April 7 in JAMA Network Open.
