Using deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant OCD

Using deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant OCD

Dr Luca Cocchi is a Group Leader and Associate Professor at QIMR Berghofer, who is currently working on ways to improve TMS for its usage in OCD treatment. Dr Philip Mosley is a Psychiatrist and Clinician-Scientist at QIMR Berghofer, where he is currently researching DBS for treatment-refractory OCD.

In this episode, Phillip explains deep brain stimulation (or DBS) and how it's being used to treat severe and treatment-resistant OCD. Phillip and Luca also discuss the outcomes of recent clinical trials and explain how accessible these treatments currently are for Australians.

This episode is part two of our two-part conversation with Luca and Phillip. Check out our last episode to hear more about the neuroscience behind OCD, and the use of TMS for OCD treatment.
