Transcranial direct current stimulation, tDCS, is a promising treatment for conditions such as depression and addictive disorders. New evidence on the safety of transcranial direct current stimulation ...

PHILADELPHIA -How the human brain processes the words we hear and constructs complex concepts is still somewhat of a mystery to the neuroscience community. Transcranial direct current stimulation ...

An experimental study in China found that study participants who received alpha frequency transcranial alternating current ...

The notion that low levels of electrical stimulation applied to the scalp, barely enough to create a mild tingling sensation, could activate the brain is a relatively new and somewhat controversial ...

BOSTON — Transcranial direct current stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex increased activation of the area and improved self-reported fatigue in patients with MS, Giuseppina Pilloni, PhD, ...

Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), a noninvasive technique that uses low-intensity electrical currents to modulate brain activity, is an effective intervention for treating chronic ...

People have investigated brain stimulation since very early times, in ancient Rome torpedo fish were applied to the heads of some patients to relieve headaches, for instance, by their electrical ...

Since brain activity is due to the electrical activity of neurons, extrinsic electrical stimulation as a means of modulating this activity has been long studied as a technique which could help to ...

Cranioelectrotherapy stimulation (CES), also called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) or microcurrent electrical stimulation, is based on the application of extremely weak electrical ...
