NCT ID NCT04782869
First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tested a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS in 17 people with drug-resistant epilepsy. The stimulation was personalized based on each patient's seizure zone, previously mapped with brain electrodes. Researchers measured changes in seizure frequency and brain activity to see if this approach could help control seizures without surgery.
