The pressure phosphene tonometer—a clinical evaluation [PDF]
Eye, 2004 Pressure phosphene tonometry is said to assess intraocular pressure by inducing a pressure phosphene. This study compared the results of this relatively new technique with Goldmann applanation tonometry.A total of 100 patients (196 readings) in a general ophthalmology clinic at Dunedin Hospital who consented to take part in this study were randomised ...

Spontaneous Fluctuations in Posterior α-Band EEG Activity Reflect Variability in Excitability of Human Visual Areas [PDF]
, 2017 Neural activity fluctuates dynamically with time, and these changes have been reported to be of behavioral significance, despite occurring spontaneously. Through electroencephalography (EEG), fluctuations in α-band (8-14 Hz) activity have been identified

Attention modulates TMS-locked alpha oscillations in the visual cortex [PDF]
, 2015 Cortical oscillations, such as 8–12 Hz alpha-band activity, are thought to subserve gating of information processing in the human brain. While most of the supporting evidence is correlational, causal evidence comes from attempts to externally drive ...

Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS)
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) seems likely to open a new era of the field of noninvasive electrical stimulation of the human brain by directly interfering with cortical rhythms. It is expected to synchronize (by one single resonance
