Reprint of: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) – Application in neuropsychology

Neuropsychologia, 2015
Non-invasive brain stimulation is a versatile tool to modulate psychological processes via alterations of brain activity, and excitability. It is applied to explore the physiological basis of cognition and behavior, as well as to reduce clinical symptoms in neurological and psychiatric diseases. Neuromodulatory brain stimulation via transcranial direct

T005 Transcranial Direct Current stimulation (tDCS) for schizophrenia

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2017
Transcranial Direct Current stimulation (tDCS) has been proposed as a treatment for treatment-resistant auditory verbal hallucinations and negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. Despite first clinical studies hold promises, little is known regarding predictive marker of response as well as brain and on cognitive modulation that can underlie ...

Effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on post-stroke dysphagia

Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience, 2012
Purpose: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with swallowing training might improve swallowing function in patients with post-stroke dysphagia. We investigate the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with swallowing training on post-stroke dysphagia. Methods: Sixteen patients with post-stroke dysphagia,

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and trigeminal pain: A preclinical study

Oral Diseases, 2019
AbstractObjectiveOur objective was to evaluate the Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) effect on facial allodynia induced by chronic constriction of the infraorbital nerve (CCI‐ION) and on the brainstem levels of TNF‐α, NGF, IL‐10, and serum LDH in rats.MethodsRats were exposed to the CCI‐ION model.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in a Patient with PRES and Bipolar Depression

Fortschritte der Neurologie · Psychiatrie, 2015
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive tool for brain stimulation and has proven efficacy in depressive disorders. Here, we report the case of a patient with recurrent bipolar depressive disorder and neurologic complications due to posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) due to parathyroid adenoma.

Principles of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS): Introduction to the Biophysics of tDCS

2019
This chapter summarizes the current knowledge about the biophysics of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). It begins by illustrating the basic physical principles by which weak electric currents applied transcranially induce an electric field inside the brain.

Examining Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation (tDCS) as a Treatment for Hallucinations in Schizophrenia

American Journal of Psychiatry, 2012
Some 25%–30% of patients with schizophrenia have auditory verbal hallucinations that are refractory to antipsychotic drugs. Outcomes in studies of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation suggest the possibility that application of transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) with inhibitory stimulation over the left temporo-parietal cortex and ...

Modelling the effect of electrode displacement on transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

Journal of Neural Engineering, 2018
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulatory technique that delivers a low-intensity, direct current to cortical areas with the purpose of modulating underlying brain activity. Recent studies have reported inconsistencies in tDCS outcomes.

Determination of optimal electrode positions for transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2008
The present study introduces a new approach to determining optimal electrode positions in transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Electric field and 3D conduction current density were analyzed using 3D finite element method (FEM) formulated for a dc conduction problem.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS): A New Tool for the Treatment of Tinnitus?

2011
1. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique of cortical stimulation encompassing a relatively weak constant current flow (between 0, 5 and 2 mA) through the cerebral cortex via scalp electrodes. 2. Several studies already revealed that tDCS can influence working memory, decision making, risk-taking ...
