Brain Metabolic Changes with Longitudinal Transcutaneous Afferent Patterned Stimulation in Essential Tremor Subjects

摘要

Non-invasive peripheral nerve stimulation, also referred to as transcutaneous afferent patterned stimulation (TAPS), reduces hand tremor in essential tremor (ET) subjects. However, the mechanism of action of TAPS is unknown. Here, we investigated changes in brain metabolism over three months of TAPS use in ET subjects.
