transcranial current stimulation (tcs) is a neuromodulation method in which the patient is exposed to a mild electric current (direct or alternating) at 1-2 ma, resulting in an increase or a decrease in the brain excitability. this modi.cation in neural activities can be used as a method for functional human brain mapping with causal inferences. this method might also facilitate the treatments ...

brain stimulation techniques are important in both basic and clinical studies. majority of well-known brain stimulating techniques have low spatial resolution or entail invasive processes. low intensity focused ultrasound (lifu) seems to be a proper candidate for dealing with such deficiencies. this review recapitulates studies which explored the effects of lifu on brain structures and its func...

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) has been reported on its effect to reorganize the sensory neural network in central nervous system, similar as observations traditional invasive stimulation.

Background and Aim: Brain mapping is a study of the anatomy and function of the CNS (central nervous system). Brain mapping has many techniques and these techniques are permanently changing and updating. From the beginning, brain mapping was invasive and for brain mapping, electrical stimulation of the exposed brain was needed. However, nowadays brain mapping does not require electrical stimula...

background: research supports that in vitro fertilization causes anxiety and that anxiety can continue into the resulting pregnancy. most women who have ivf will have a less invasive treatment for infertility prior to ivf; however, it is unclear if specific less invasive treatment cycles impact anxiety that is experienced in the pregnancy resulting from ivf. methods: a prospective study was con...

background and aim: the normal response of h-reflex depression (hd) was reduced in chronic spinal cord injury (sci) patients. the reduction of this normal response can lead to increase the muscle tone and spasticity. the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of tripolar cathodal stimulation on hd in sci patients.   materials and methods: this study was conducted in 10 volunteered s...
