Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine if scalp cooling can enhance the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on motor cortex excitability.
- It involved 105 healthy participants in a randomized, double-blind design where various tDCS protocols and scalp cooling were tested, with motor evoked potentials measured to assess changes in brain excitability.
- Results indicated that neither tDCS nor scalp cooling produced measurable improvements in motor cortex excitability, suggesting that these methods do not alter cortical excitability effectively.
