Intermittent theta burst stimulation for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity and is associated with delayed prefrontal maturation and frontoparietal abnormalities1. Non-invasive brain stimulation shows promise ADHD, with a recent meta-analysis finding a medium effect size of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on ADHD symptoms2. However, pediatric data remains limited3,4 , and all ADHD rTMS studies to date have utilized traditional rTMS parameters with scalp-based measurements.
