This study is testing a new treatment called Image-guided, Robot Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (IR-TMS) for people with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). IR-TMS uses magnetic fields to target specific parts of the brain. You might be able to join if you are 18-65 years old, have a diagnosis of moderate to severe AUD, and meet certain drinking criteria, including a specific blood test result (PEth >20 ng/mL). The study aims to see if IR-TMS can help reduce the amount you drink. Success will be measured by changes in your PEth level at 1 and 6 months after starting the study. The study plans to enroll 150 participants.

Study design

This interventional study plans to enroll 150 participants with Alcohol Use Disorder. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups, each targeting a different brain area.
