Summary
This study tests whether a mild electrical current applied to the scalp (tDCS) can increase blood flow to the brain and improve memory and thinking in people with Moyamoya disease or hardened brain arteries. About 50 adults with cognitive problems will get MRI scans and thinking tests before and after stimulation. The goal is to see if this simple, non-invasive technique can ease symptoms of poor blood flow.
