Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the healthy subjects, Dual stimulation of anodal-tDCS on the contralateral M1 and peripheral nerve stimulation might improve corticospinal excitability, muesle strength, and force accuracy.
It was indicated that Anodal-tDCS on the contralateral S1 might improve mechanical detection thresholds for the patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy with sensory defecits and numbness.
Moreover, there ware no significant differences of enhanced functional recovery of anodal-tDCS on the contralateral M1 compared to sham-tDCS for two weeks rehabilitation after laminoplasty for cervical spondylotic myelopathy.
