About This Trial
The proposed project aims to explore possible neuromodulatory effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on neuropathic pain caused by peripheral neuropathy. tDCS will be performed through an MRI-compatible stimulation setting during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning. The stimulation target of tDCS will be the primary motor cortex (M1) and the dorsolateral prefro…
