Article Synopsis
  • Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique that uses weak electrical currents to adjust brain activity, but its effectiveness can vary widely among individuals due to factors like brain atrophy.
  • A study involving 180 MRI scans categorized participants by Alzheimer's disease and sex to analyze how brain atrophy impacts the electric fields generated by tDCS across different brain regions.
  • Results showed significant variations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume and electric field patterns, indicating that factors like brain atrophy influence tDCS outcomes, highlighting the need for further research to refine its therapeutic applications.

Transcutaneous spinal electrical stimulation (tSCS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation approach using a low intensity direct current. Recent developments in the technique have opened the possibility that tSCS can help restore motor function after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the exact mechanism of action tSCS has on the spinal circuits is still unknown.

To study transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and its effect on the brain, it could be useful to predict the distribution of the electric field induced in the brain with given tDCS parameters. As a solution, simulation with realistic computational models using magnetic resonance images (MRIs) have been widely used in the fields. With the recent advance of deep learning-based segmentation techniques of the brain, questions have been raised about if tDCS-induced electric field is affected by the deep brain structures.
