  1. Smoking Cessation Induced by Deep Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of the Prefrontal and Insular Cortices: A Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial

    L Dinur-Klein, P Dannon, A Hadar, O Rosenberg, Y Roth, M Kotler, A Zangen

    Biological Psychiatry  ·  2014

  2. Deep TMS on Alcoholics: Effects on Cortisolemia and Dopamine Pathway Modulation. A Pilot Study

    M Ceccanti, M Inghilleri, M.L Attilia, R Raccah, M Fiore, A Zangen

    Canadian Journal of Physiological Pharmacology  ·  2015

    The hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis and dopamine have a key role in transition from alcohol social use to addiction. The medial prefrontal cortex was shown to modulate dopaminergic activity and cortisol releasing factor (CRF) release in hypothalamic and extra-hypothalamic systems. The recent…

  3. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of Medial Prefrontal and Cingulate Cortices Reduces Cocaine Self-Administration: A Pilot Study

    D Martinez, N Urban, A Grassetti, D Chang, M.C Hu, A Zangen, F.R Levin, R Foltin, et al.

    Frontiers in Psychiatry  ·  2018

    Previous studies have shown that deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (Deep TMS™) to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex may serve as a potential treatment for cocaine use disorder (CUD), which remains a public health problem that is refractory to treatment. Previous imaging studies have…
