Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation or transcranial direct current stimulation?
Brain Stimulation, 2009 In recent years two techniques have become available to stimulate the human brain noninvasively through the scalp: repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Prolonged application of either method (eg, several hundred TMS pulses [rTMS] or several minutes of tDCS) leads to changes in ...

Learning, Memory, and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2012 Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been the subject of many studies concerning its possible cognitive effects. One of the proposed mechanisms of action for neuromodulatory techniques, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and tDCS is induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD)-like phenomena. LTP and LTD

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) for Memory Enhancement [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2021 Memory enhancement is one of the great challenges in cognitive neuroscience and neurorehabilitation. Among various techniques used for memory enhancement, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is emerging as an especially promising tool for improvement of memory functions in a non-invasive manner.

Transcranial direct current brain stimulation for chronic pain
BMJ, 2015 Not recommended; early promise is fading fast as trial methods improve Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation that delivers low intensity direct current stimulation to the brain through electrodes applied to the skin over the target area.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in Mice
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2018 Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique proposed as an alternative or complementary treatment for several neuropsychiatric diseases. The biological effects of tDCS are not fully understood, which is in part explained due to the difficulty in obtaining human brain tissue.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Neuropathic Pain [PDF]
Journal of Pain & Relief, 2014 Neuropathic pain (NP) is one of the most common problems contributing to suffering and disability worldwide. Unfortunately, NP is also largely refractory to treatments, with a large number of patients continuing to report significant pain even when they are receiving recommended medications and physical therapy.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS).
International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2022 Transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) is a neuromodulatory device that is used for its ability to enhance cognitive and behavioral performance. Human studies suggest that TDCS modulates cortical excitability during stimulation by nonsynaptic changes of the cells, along with evidence that the after-effects of TDCS are driven by synaptic ...

Transcranial direct current stimulation – update 2011
Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience, 2011 Non-invasive brain stimulation with weak direct currents (transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)) has emerged as one of the major tools to induce neuroplastic cortical excitability alterations in humans since its (re-) introduction to the arsenal of plasticity-inducing brain stimulation tools.

Cortical Excitability Before and After Long‐Term Perampanel Treatment for Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Antiseizure medications (ASMs), which may influence cortical excitability, are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) helps evaluate cortical excitability. We assessed changes in TMS responses using serial TMS measurements in people treated with an adjunctive noncompetitive AMPA‐receptor ...
