    Advanced electrode models for transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) and electroencephalography (EEG) were compared. The gap model (GAP) is accurate for tES, while GAP/point electrode model (PEM) suffices for parallel tES/EEG.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Computational Neuroscience
    • Medical Physics

    Background:

    • Accurate modeling of electrodes is crucial for transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) and electroencephalography (EEG).
    • Boundary condition-based approaches offer efficient modeling without auxiliary elements.
    • The complete electrode model (CEM) provides a detailed skin-electrode interface description.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the accuracy of the complete electrode model (CEM) with reduced models (GAP and PEM) for tES and parallel tES/EEG.
    • To evaluate electrode modeling differences in a realistic auditory cortex stimulation scenario.
    • To determine the suitability of different models for practical tES and tES/EEG applications.

    Main Methods:

    • Investigated boundary condition-based electrode modeling approaches.

  • Compared the CEM with the gap model (GAP) and point electrode model (PEM).
  • Utilized a realistic numerical simulation based on auditory cortex stimulation.

    • Main Results:

    • The GAP model demonstrated sufficient accuracy for practical tES applications.
    • The GAP/PEM combination proved accurate for parallel tES/EEG measurements.
    • CEM uniquely captured heating effects within the skin compartment, unlike the GAP model.

    Conclusions:

    • Reduced electrode models like GAP and GAP/PEM are viable for practical tES and parallel tES/EEG.
    • CEM provides a more comprehensive model, particularly for understanding thermal effects in tES.
    • Model selection depends on the specific application's requirements for accuracy and detail.
