"Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). A tDCS device uses an anode and cathode connected to a direct current source much like a 9 V battery (a). The direct current passes through the intervening tissue, with some shunting through the skull but much of it passes through the brain and changes resting electrical charge, particularly under the cathode (b)." - GEORGE, Mark S. and ASTON-JONES, Gary
