Magnetic Brain Stimulation May Help Treat Symptoms of A**rexia
[IMG]http://www.medgadget.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/TMS-for-a**rexia.jpg[/IMG] At King’s College London researchers have been testing transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a technique already used for treading depression, neuropathic chronic pain, and other conditions, as a therapy option for people suffering from a**rexia. They report promising results in a study in the journal PLOS ONE. The team stimulated the*dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, a region within the Brain considered to be at least partially responsible for self-control. Delivering Magnetic field pulses at this region can disturb its ab**rmal natural activity. This was done repeatedly on a group of volunteers with Symptoms of a**rexia, while a sham treatment was performed on a control group. The researchers looked at the decision making of the volunteers before and after treatment, showing that the ones receiving therapy were making smarter choices. Here’s a video report from King’s College London about the use of the Stimulation tech**logy: Study in PLOS ONE: A Randomised Controlled Trial of Neuronavigated Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in A**rexia Nervosa… More from*King’s College London… The post Magnetic Brain Stimulation May Help Treat Symptoms of A**rexia appeared first on Medgadget. ??????? ??????: Magnetic Brain Stimulation May Help Treat Symptoms of A**rexia || ??????: rss || ??????: اسم منتداك
