Brain Stimulation and Neuroplasticity [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2021 Electrical or magnetic stimulation methods for brain or nerve modulation have been widely known for centuries, beginning with the Atlantic torpedo fish for the treatment of headaches in ancient Greece, followed by Luigi Galvani’s experiments with frog legs in baroque Italy, and leading to the interventional use of brain stimulation methods across ...

Functional MRI during hippocampal deep brain stimulation in the healthy rat brain [PDF]
, 2015 Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a promising treatment for neurological and psychiatric disorders. The mechanism of action and the effects of electrical fields administered to the brain by means of an electrode remain to be elucidated.

Stimulating the Addictive Brain [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012 In western industrialized nations approximately 25% of all deaths are caused directly or indirectly by the consumption of psychotropic substances. Substance-related addictions therefore constitute the most frequently occurring psychiatric disease category (McGinnis and Foege, 1993).

Brain stimulation therapeutics
Addiction Neuroscience, 2023 This chapter covers how repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) or transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) presently affects smoking cessation. 14 human studies have examined the efficacy of rTMS on cue craving, cigarette consumption, or smoking cessation using a variety of different coils, locations, and treatment parameters.

Neurology Clinical Practice, 2012 High-frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapy for Parkinson disease (PD), essential tremor, and primary dystonia, and is under investigation for several neuropsychiatric diseases. DBS for PD, in the subthalamic nucleus or globus pallidus interna (GPi), improves tremor, bradykinesia, and rigidity, emotional well-being and sleep ...

Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2006 Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has provided remarkable benefits for people with a variety of neurologic conditions. Stimulation of the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus can dramatically relieve tremor associated with essential tremor or Parkinson disease (PD).

The Insula: A Stimulating Island of the Brain [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2021 Direct cortical stimulation (DCS) in epilepsy surgery patients has a long history of functional brain mapping and seizure triggering. Here, we review its findings when applied to the insula in order to map the insular functions, evaluate its local and distant connections, and trigger seizures. Clinical responses to insular DCS are frequent and diverse,
