Abstract
Objective.— We investigated in a sham‐controlled trial the analgesic effects of a 4‐week treatment of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the primary motor cortex in chronic migraine. In addition, using a high‐resolution tDCS computational model, we analyzed the current flow (electric field) through brain regions associated with pain perception and modulation.
