Condition: Stroke · Sponsor: Chinese University of Hong Kong
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been applied to facilitate cortical excitability in stroke populations, as increasing evidence suggests that clinical recovery from stroke is attributed to neuroplastic reorganization. However, recovery from stroke following this kind of non-invasive neuromodulation remains divergent across stroke patients due to variations in their etiologies, lesion profiles and post-stroke duration. A novel multisite high definition tDCS (HD-tDCS) in healthy people showed that such network-targeted stimulation could enhance motor excitability beyond conventional stimulation which targeting only one region. The electrode placements could be determined by the montage optimization, which targets individual motor network activation navigated by task-based fMRI using computation algorithms. By targeting motor network, the new multisite electrode montage may provide a potential to facilitate better cortical activation than conventional tDCS montage.
