Modulation of pain sensitivity by tDCS using different anodal connector locations: a single-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled study
tDCS-induced long-lasting changes in pain sensitivity may depend on the location of the wire connector when using a rectangular anode. A greater pain modulatory effect may be induced when the connector is aligned superior-medially along the central sulcus.
