Abstract:
Depression, as a complex affective mental disorder, brings a considerable burden to patients and society. At present, pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy, and traditional physical therapy methods cannot fully meet clinical needs. Therefore, seeking new treatment methods has become an urgent matter. In recent years, transcranial direct current stimulation, as a non-invasive neuromodulation technique, has attracted widespread attention and research in the field of depression treatment. This article briefly reviews the research progress of transcranial direct current stimulation in treating depression.
