About This Trial
A novel multisite high definition tDCS (HD-tDCS) in healthy people showed that such network-targeted stimulation could enhance motor excitability beyond traditional stimulation which targeting only one region. It showed that the excitability following multisite HD-tDCS was more than double the increase following conventional tDCS. To consider the various lesion site of different stroke survivors. …
