Summary

This study aims at combining imaging techniques and clinical evaluations to assess clinical change as well as brain changes that occur as a result of brain stimulation in adult attention deficit disorder.

Detailed description

This study will use clinical measures and cognitive tasks covering 3 different functional domains during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG) and Ultrasound tagged near infrared spectroscopy (UT-NIRS), to assess functional brain changes as a result of a treatment protocol with Transcaranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in adults suffering from attention deficit disorder (ADD).
