Non-Invasive Electrical Brain Stimulation Montages for Modulation of Human Motor Function

[Mesodiencephalic modulation (transcranial electrostimulation of the brain) in neurology and psychiatry]
Abstract:
The paper outlines the results of mesodiencephalic modulation (MDM) as therapy in adults and children with neurological and mental diseases in the out- and inpatient setting. MDM is a method of transcranial electric therapy that normalizes the performance of the hypothalamohypophyseal and opioid systems of the brain, which ultimately improves the body's adaptive response in disease.

Brain Imaging
Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

Electroconvulsive Therapy
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), or shock therapy, remains a critical biomedical intervention for severe, treatment-resistant depression. While its origins can be traced back to Hippocrates' observations that malaria-induced convulsions alleviated mental illness, modern ECT has evolved significantly from its earlier, more primitive applications. First introduced in 1938 by Ugo Cerletti and his colleagues, ECT involves inducing controlled seizures using electrical currents. In its early years,...
