Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Treatment of Refractory Childhood Focal Epilepsy

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Treatment of Refractory Childhood Focal Epilepsy

Background: Cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation method for suppressing regional cortical excitability. We examine the safety and antiepileptic efficacy of cathodal tDCS in children with refractory focal epilepsy. Although a prior cathodal tDCS t...
