Brain Functional Connectivity Changes After Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Epileptic Patients

Brain Functional Connectivity Changes After Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Epileptic Patients

Focal epilepsy is a network pathology, where the brain connectivity of the epileptic focus (EF) influences seizure frequency and cortical dysfunction. Growing evidence supports a clinical efficacy of cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (ctDCS) in drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE). ctDCS eff...
