Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.Change in depressive symptoms assessed by change in HAM-D score after completion of TBS protocol & 14 days after last session of TBS. 2.Change in depressive symptoms assessed by change in MADRS score after completion of TBS protocol & 14 days after last session of TBS. 3.Change in psychotic symptoms assessed by change in BPRS score after completion of TBS protocol & 14 days after last session of TBS. Timepoint: Baseline, Day 14, Day 28

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Changes in functional connectivity in central executive network assessed by resting state fMRI from baseline to end of last TBS session. 2.Changes in clinical improvement as measured by CGI-I score from baseline to end of last TBS session & 14 days after last TBS session.Timepoint: Baseline,Day 14, Day 28
