What the trial wants to find out

Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) has emerged as a promising adjunctive intervention for reducing craving and improving clinical outcomes. This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TBS for MUD. A RCT of 20 subjects was conducted to evalute the efficacy and safety of TBS as an adjunctive treatment to CBT in managing MUD.
