The efficacy of transcranial current stimulation techniques to modulate resting-state EEG, to affect vigilance and to promote sleepiness [PDF]
Transcranial Current Stimulations (tCSs) are non-invasive brain stimulation techniques which modulate cortical excitability and spontaneous brain activity by the application of weak electric currents through the scalp, in a safe, economic, and well ...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]
In this Primer we have been able to give only a snapshot of the basic features and the applications of TMS. Some fundamentals of the use of TMS are falling into place as we learn more about the effects of different combinations of stimulus intensity, frequency, task and behavioural state.

A computational model for real-time calculation of electric field due to transcranial magnetic stimulation in clinics [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to propose an approach for an accurate and fast (real-time) computation of the electric field induced inside the whole brain volume during a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) procedure. The numerical solution implements the
