A novel technique for accurate electrode placement over cortical targets for transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) clinical trials.

ABSTRACT: Objective. We present an easy-to-implement technique for accurate electrode placement over repeated transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) sessions across participants and time. tES is an emerging, non-invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers electrical stimulation using scalp electrodes.Approach.The tES electrode placement technique was developed during an exploratory clinical trial aimed at targeting a specific MNI-atlas cortical coordinate inN= 59 depressed participants (32 F, mean age: 31.1 ± 8.3 SD). Each participant completed 12 sessions of active or sham stimulation, administered using high-definition (HD) or conventional sized electrode montages placed according to the proposed technique. Neuronavigation data measuring the distances between the ident
