Experimental Histological Evidence of the Safety of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation as a Therapeutic Procedure

Safety of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation: Evidence Based Update 2016.

This review updates and consolidates evidence on the safety of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS). Safety is here operationally defined by, and limited to, the absence of evidence for a Serious Adverse Effect, the criteria for which are rigorously defined. This review adopts an evidence-based approach, based on an aggregation of experience from human trials, taking care not to confu...

Safety of transcranial direct current stimulation: Evidence based update 2016

Last year, Bikson and colleagues attempted to collate data to inform the safety of the transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), an electrical brain stimulation technique that has been used to treat of neurological problems and psychiatric disorders. The review was qualified as an evidence-based review and the authors concluded that the review was able to “consolidate evidence on the safe...

W6: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Workshop

It is an Intensive 1-day course for introducing utilizing transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in an applied format. This technique is a noninvasive brain stimulation that uses direct electrical currents over the head to stimulate specific parts of the brain which modulates neuronal activity. It has strong potentiality in the field of medical and neuroscientific research. Anodal stimu...

P153: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) for the Treatment of PTSD: A Brief Review of Effectiveness

Cognitive neuroscience prefers a reductionist approach to normal and abnormal brain functions. So, it tries to reducing causes and indices of cognitive and neural processes, in order to increases the accuracy in investigation and manipulation of variables. As a comparison, common diagnostic criteria for mental disorders utilize multidimensional global criteria that existence of some non-overlap...
