Journal ArticleDOI
Excitability changes induced in the human motor cortex by weak transcranial direct current stimulation.
Michael A. Nitsche,Walter Paulus +1 more
TL;DR: Transcranial electrical stimulation using weak current may be a promising tool to modulate cerebral excitability in a non‐invasive, painless, reversible, selective and focal way.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial direct current stimulation: State of the art 2008
Michael A. Nitsche,Leonardo G. Cohen,Eric M. Wassermann,Alberto Priori,Nicolas Lang,Andrea Antal,Walter Paulus,Friedhelm C. Hummel,Paulo S. Boggio,Felipe Fregni,Alvaro Pascual-Leone +10 more
TL;DR: An overview of the state of the art for transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is offered, which suggests that it can induce beneficial effects in brain disorders and facilitate and standardize future tDCS studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustained excitability elevations induced by transcranial DC motor cortex stimulation in humans
Michael A. Nitsche,Walter Paulus +1 more
TL;DR: The authors show that in the human transcranial direct current stimulation is able to induce sustained cortical excitability elevations, and this technique is a potentially valuable tool in neuroplasticity modulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-invasive electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord, roots and peripheral nerves: Basic principles and procedures for routine clinical and research application: An updated report from an I.F.C.N. Committee

George,Mark Hallett,Jean-Pascal Lefaucheur,Berthold Langguth,Hideyuki Matsumoto,Carlo Miniussi,Michael A. Nitsche,Alvaro Pascual-Leone,Walter Paulus,Simone Rossi,John C. Rothwell,Hartwig R. Siebner,Yoshikazu Ugawa,Vincent Walsh,Ulf Ziemann +24 more
TL;DR: These guidelines provide an up-date of previous IFCN report on “Non-invasive electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord and roots: basic principles and procedures for routine clinical application” and include some recent extensions and developments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological Basis of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
TL;DR: The authors bring together the results from these pharmacological, neurophysiological, and imaging studies to describe their current knowledge of the physiological effects of tDCS, and the theoretical framework for how tDCS affects motor learning is proposed.
