Abstract:BackgroundMajor depressive disorder (MDD) was a prevalent mental condition that may be accompanied by decreased excitability of left frontal pole (FP) and abnormal brain connections. An 820 nm tPBM can induce an increase in stimulated cortical excitability. The purpose of our study was to establish how clinical symptoms and time‐varying brain network connectivity of MDD were affected by transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM).MethodsA total of 11 patients with MDD received 820 nm tPBM targeting the left FP for … Show more
