Title: | Targeting the Cerebellum by Noninvasive Neurostimulation: a Review | Authors: | VAN DUN, Kim Bodranghien, F Manto, M Marien, P |
Issue Date: | 2017 | Publisher: | SPRINGER | Source: | CEREBELLUM, 16 (3) , p. 695 -741 | Abstract: | Transcranial magnetic and electric stimulation of the brain are novel and highly promising techniques currently employed in both research and clinical practice. Improving or rehabilitating brain functions by modulating excitability with these noninvasive tools is an exciting new area in neuroscience. Since the cerebellum is closely connected with the cerebral regions subserving motor, associative, and affective functions, the cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathways are an interesting target for these new techniques. Targeting the cerebellum represents a novel way to modulate the excitability of remote cortical regions and their functions. This review brings together the studies that have applied cerebellar stimulation, magnetic and electric, and presents an overview of the current knowledge and unsolved issues. Some recommendations for future research are implemented as well. | Keywords: | Cerebellum;TMS;tDCS;Functional connectivity;Motor;Cognitive;Affective;Clinical | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/30931 | ISSN: | 1473-4222 | e-ISSN: | 1473-4230 | DOI: | 10.1007/s12311-016-0840-7 | ISI #: | WOS:000401509000011 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
