Advancements in Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation for MS Treatment
Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) show promise in reducing spasticity in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, according to a review study. However, evidence for transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was limited. More clinical trials with long-term follow-up are needed to determine the optimal approach for treating spasticity in MS. Spasticity, characterized by muscle tightness and spasms, is a challenging symptom to manage in MS patients and can impact mobility and overall quality of life.
