The use of motion tracking devices in healthcare is under investigation. Although many motion tracking applications have been proposed to monitor the progress of rehabilitation, using such technology to quantify the progression or improvement of therapies for movement disorders is still scarce. In this study, we introduce a touch-free reaching task which uses a motion sensing device. Our motion tracking...
Freezing-of-Gait (FoG) is a syndrome of Parkinson's disease defined by episodes when patients show a complete inability to take a step or continue with their locomotion. In order to develop closed-loop therapeutic strategies, including deep brain stimulation, a reliable means of detecting freezing episodes is required. By using wearable accelerometers, freezing episodes can be detected with energy-based...
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an emerging method, used for non-invasively stimulating the brain in normal healthy subjects and in patients with neurological disorders. However, the pattern of the spatial distribution of the current intensity induced by tDCS is poorly understood. In this study, we directly measured the spatial characteristics of the current intensity induced by...
