Abstract:Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been shown to facilitate surgical training and performance when compared to sham tDCS; however, the potency may be improved by selecting appropriate brain targets based on neuroimaging and mechanistic insights. Published studies have shown the feasibility of portable brain imaging in conjunction with tDCS during Fundamentals of Laparoscopic Surgery (FLS) tasks for concurrently monitoring the cortical activations via functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS… Show more
