Significant group-level hotspots found in deep brain regions during transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS): A computational analysis of electric fields

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulation scheme that delivers a small current via electrodes placed on the scalp. The target is generally assumed to be under the electrode, but deep brain regions could also be involved due to the large current spread between the electrodes. This study aims to computationally evaluate if group-level hotspots exist in deep brain regions for different electrode montages.We computed the...
