Lab Experiments

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a portable, wearable brain stimulation technique that delivers a low electric current to the scalp. It is a non-invasive, painless brain stimulation treatment that uses direct electrical currents to stimulate specific parts of the brain.

         


Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS)

Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a non-invasive, portable method employing near-infrared light propagating diffusely through the scalp and brain, for functional monitoring and imaging of human brain hemodynamics.

    


Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST)

Quantitative Sensory Testing using the MedDoc TSA 2 is an advanced thermosensory stimulator assessment. It is a non-invasive clinical test of small caliber sensory nerve fiber function, the primary transmitters of pain sensation. 


Touch-Test Sensory Evaluators

Touch-Test Sensory Evaluators are a non-invasive tool used to test sensory levels and obtain objective data for accurate reporting on the status of diminishing or returning sensibility. 


Analogue Pressure Algometer 

Analogue Pressure Algometer is a device that is used to identify the pressure and/or force eliciting a pressure-pain threshold. 


Thermo Fisher Scientific Water Circulator

Water Circulators provide temperature-controlled fluid circulation for experimental measures.
