Study Summary

Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) experience a wide array of different types of obsessions and compulsions. However, current treatments for OCD employ a "one size fits all" approach and are used for all patients regardless of symptom type. In this project, the investigators propose to investigate whether a novel method of transcranial magnetic stimulation specifically reduces contamination/washing symptoms - one of the most common types of OCD.

Primary Outcome

Change in functional connectivity between: 1) R MFG and right temporoparietal junction (R TPJ); 2) R MFG and left temporoparietal junction (L TPJ); 3) R MFG and right inferior frontal gyrus (R IFG); 4) R MFG and left inferior frontal gyrus (L IFG); 5) R MFG and right anterior insula (R AI); 6) R MFG and left anterior insula (L AI); 7) R MFG and right posteromedial putamen; and 8) R MFG and left posteromedial putamen
