Clinical trials: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
Depression
Depression and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)is a non invasive technique which uses a very weak current to change excitability in targeted regions of the brain. Early studies suggest that it has antidepressant properties.
