Neuromodulation with tDC

• Communicate the risks, potential benefits and the investigational nature of tDC with a potential patient for the purpose of securing a written informed consent prior to treatment
• Understand the similarities and differences between low voltage direct current and high voltage pulsed galvanic and how to apply knowledge of their polarity specific effects in clinical neuromodulation
• Identify brain targets for neuromodulation and construct a therapeutic electrode montage, treatment protocol in terms of intensity, duration, frequency and dose of tDC 
• Explain the theory of tDC as it relates to pain modulation based on contemporaneous scientific literature
• Apply tDC  as an adjunct procedure to assist in intractable pain relief
