Noninvasive electrical stimulation of the central nervous system is attracting increasing interest from the clinical and academic communities as well as from high-tech companies. This interest was sparked by two landmark studies conducted in 2000 and 2001 at the University of G?ttingen, Germany. Michael Nitsche and Walter Paulus showed that by passing a weak, almost imperceptible electric current...
This paper proposes a feasibility study of galvanic-coupled intrabody communication applied to brain stimulation. A computational model of the human head based on the finite element method allows the analysis of electric field and current density through the brain tissues and the derivation of conclusions about key parameters like frequency or electrode configuration.
Objective: A procedure to personalize the electrode to stimulate specific cortical regions by transcranial electric stimulations has been recently proposed. This study aims to assess the distribution of the electric field (E) induced by tES via the personalized (RePE) and the nonpersonalized (ReNPE) electrode. Methods: We used two anatomical models on which we shaped and placed the RePE, based on...
