Transcranial Electrical Stimulation – An Accelerator for the Recovery of Craniocerebral Injuries
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive, neuromodulation technique using a constant, low-intensity (0-2 mA) current. A weak direct current is applied to the cerebral cortex. The anode increases cortical excitability, which eases cortical neural tissue and improves functioning; the cathode decreases cortical excitability and inhibits overexcited cortical cells. tDCS acts directly on the …
