Conclusions

Transcranial direct current stimulation has demonstrated some promise as a treatment for various disorders, including MDD. However, important questions remain unanswered, including precise mechanisms of action, ideal stimulation parameters for different disorders, optimal dosing schedules, and long-term safety \cite{25456566}. Although further research must answer some of these questions before its clinical utility becomes clear, tDCS appears to be a relatively safe, flexible, durable, inexpensive, and convenient method of treatment that holds potential for treatment of disorders affecting various parts of the cortex.
