Identifying Electrophysiological Targets for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Cocaine Use Disorder (Pilot Study)

Identifying Electrophysiological Targets for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Cocaine Use Disorder

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of active intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) to dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) on electroencephalogram (EEG) measures of reward sensitivity and cue reactivity and cocaine craving in cocaine users

Inclusion Criteria:

• CUD diagnosis

Exclusion Criteria:

• moderate or severe criteria for substances other than cocaine, cannabis, or nicotine
• unstable psychiatric disorder
• medical conditions contraindicated to TMS (e.g., medical implants, history of seizure or seizure disorder, medications lowering the seizure threshold, neurological conditions, moderate-to-severe heart disease)
• pregnancy
• hairstyles incompatible with the EEG net
• head injury with loss of consciousness
