A review of the new minimally invasive brain stimulation techniques in psychiatry

Abstract: New knowledge about the specific brain regions involved in neuropsychiatric disorders is rapidly evolving due to recent advances in functional neuroimaging techniques. The ability to stimulate the brain in awake alert adults without neurosurgery is a real advance that neuroscientists have long dreamed for. Several novel and minimally invasive techniques to stimulate the brain have recently developed. Among these newer somatic interventions, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)… Show more

“…Las alternativas de tratamiento que se manejan actualmente son farmacológicas y quirúrgicas logrando atenuar los síntomas más característicos de esta enfermedad. Actualmente existen técnicas no invasivas como la estimulación transcraneal de corriente directa (Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation, tDCS), que se está convirtiendo en una herramienta alternativa de manejo para diferentes desordenes psiquiátricos y neurológicos 3,4 . Estudios actuales sugieren que la tDCS puede ser eficaz para el tratamiento de desordenes neurológicos 5 a partir de la modulación de la excitación en las regiones corticales estimuladas.…”
