Non-invasive brain stimulation (rTMS and tDCS) in patients with aphasia: Mode of action at the cellular level

Highlights • Both stimulations improve non-fluent and fluent aphasia. • The application is different from rTMS and tDCS but their primary site of action is same. • Their effect on brain plasticity and neurotransmitter system is same. • Their local and remote effect may base on the synaptic and non-s...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Both stimulations improve non-fluent and fluent aphasia. • The application is different from rTMS and tDCS but their primary site of action is same. • Their effect on brain plasticity and neurotransmitter system is same. • Their local and remote effect may base on the synaptic and non-synaptic transmission. • They prepare the lesioned brain for better relearning and reactivate silent neurons.
