Medial and lateral temporal lobe neuromodulation in epilepsy: a simultaneous tDCS-SEEG investigation

Abstract#32 published in Brain Simulation, 12(2):e2, March-April 2019.International audienceEpilepsy is due to an imbalance between inhibitory and excitatory processes. In in-vivo and in-vitro animal studies, transcranial current stimulation has demonstrated its ability to shift the balance of inhibition and excitation (Reato D et al., 2013). In this preliminary in-vivo study, we investigated the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in drug-resistant epileptic patients using stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG)
