Transcranial direct current stimulation

tDCS is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation. tDCS is an established research tool for non-invasive modulation of neuroplasticity. It uses low-intensity DC currents to modulate spontaneous neuronal network activity by altering the resting membrane potential. Anodal tDCS has been shown to increase cortical excitability, reduce regional levels of GABA enhance LTP and synaptic plasticity.
