| Abstract: | Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that is currently being researched for its potential in treating various conditions. Controlling the electric field generated from tACS is critical for properly stimulating regions of interest in the brain. Simulations of dual site tACS were performed in SimNIBS for 16 subjects, to check the effects of changing phase-lags and electrode montages, on the field magnitude and distribution, when stimulating the primary motor cortices. The results showed no significant differences in magnitude when changing phase-lags while significant differences for the distribution. Three montages were then compared under different metrics to find the most suitable for stimulating the region of interest. |
