Safety, Tolerability, Blinding Efficacy and Behavioral Effects of a Novel MRI-Compatible High-Definition tDCS Set-Up

Highlights • We tested safety, tolerability and blinding efficacy of a novel high-definition tDCS set-up. • We also assessed behavioral effects and compatibility with functional MRI. • Effects were compared to those of conventional-tDCS. • Only HD-tDCS modulated performance and was better tolerated...

Description
Summary:Highlights • We tested safety, tolerability and blinding efficacy of a novel high-definition tDCS set-up. • We also assessed behavioral effects and compatibility with functional MRI. • Effects were compared to those of conventional-tDCS. • Only HD-tDCS modulated performance and was better tolerated than conventional-tDCS. • The novel set-up is safe for use during MRI.
