Abstract

Introduction. Despite of the potential of TMS as an FDA-approved depression-treatment (George et al., 2010), not all patients respond (McClintock et al., 2017). Recently developed TMS/fMRI setups allow for precise investigations on the TMS mechanism of action. We recently demonstrated that TMS over M1 leads to linear BOLD-increase depending on stimulation intensity (Navarro de Lara et al., 2017). However, it remains unclear if sensitivity profiles observed in M1 also apply for DLPFC, as an important target in depression therapy. Using an improved sham condition and in-scanner neuronavigation with online tracking we investigated if DLPFC dose-response profiles are comparable to those of the motor cortex.
