Official title
Transcranial Photobiomodulation for Executive Function in Bipolar Disorder (TPEB)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Transcranial light therapy, or transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM), is a treatment that stimulates the brain by applying near-infrared light to the forehead. Transcranial light therapy has been found to promote brain metabolism, which may help improve executive function in people with bipolar disorder. The research team proposes a novel approach to treating bipolar disorder by using transcranial light therapy.
