In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study is an before-after study in the same patient, which enrolled 36 psychiatric patients with refractory auditory hallucinations. The target of patient intervention relies on the results of magnetoencephalography localization. The medication and dosage remain unchanged during the intervention period. The investigators assume that the intervention targets for each auditory hallucination patient are individualized.
