a b s t r a c tthe applications of neurophysiological therapy techniques range far and few in the realm of modern day medicine. however, the concept of electromagnetic stimulation, the basis for many noninvasive brain stimulation (nibs) techniques today, has been of interest to the scientific community since the late nineteenth century. recently, transcranial direct current stimulation (tdcs) a...

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 ...

objective: recent studies on treating obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd) have investigated noninvasive brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tdcs) to improve patients’ impaired emotion and cognition. however, such experiments have yielded mixed results, especially with respect to cognition. this study aimed to investigate whether anodal and cathodal tdcs...

introduction: anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (a-tdcs) of the primary motor cortex (m1) has been shown to be effective in increasing corticomotor excitability. 　methods: we investigated whether longer applications of a-tdcs coincide with greater increases in corticomotor excitability compared to shorter application of a-tdcs. ten right-handed healthy participants received one ses...

aim of this research was exploring effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tdcs) on working memory (wm) in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlpfc) region in healthy people.the method used in this research was experimental with random assignment and control group. the population was male students of kharazmi university in range of 18 to 23 years old. thirty participant undertook three ...

background and aim: tinnitus is an auditory phantom percept in the absence of any objective physical sound source. although advances have been made in its treatment, there is very low percent of patients that report an elimination of their tinnitus. a novel approach using noninv­asive neuromodulation has emerged as an inter­esting and promising modality for tinnitus relief. our aim in this revi...
