Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Sports Performance [PDF]
The application of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) hasmoved fromthe laboratory to the wider community. This form of non-invasive brain stimulation has been shown in a number of controlled animal and human experiments, over nearly five decades, to modulate brain physiology, cognitive functions, and behavior. While its effects are variable

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and language [PDF]
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive neuromodulation technique inducing prolonged brain excitability changes and promoting cerebral plasticity, is a promising option for neurorehabilitation. Here, we review progress in research on tDCS and language functions and on the potential role of tDCS in the treatment of post-stroke ...

Application of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Psychiatry [PDF]
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulation technique, which noninvasively alters cortical excitability via weak polarizing currents between two electrodes placed on the scalp. Since it is comparably easy to handle, cheap to use and relatively well tolerated, tDCS has gained increasing interest in recent years.

Physiology of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
Abstract Direct current stimulation is a neuromodulatory noninvasive brain stimulation tool, which was first introduced in animal and human experiments in the 1950s, and added to the standard arsenal of methods to alter brain physiology as well as psychological, motor, and behavioral processes and clinical symptoms in neurological and ...

Safety of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Neurorehabilitation [PDF]
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has considerable potential as a useful method in the field of neurorehabilitation. However, the safety of tDCS for the human is primarily based on theoretical evidence related to electricity, and the safety information of applying tDCS to the human is only available from researcher's reporting.
