Official title
Non-invasive Brain Stimulation for Gamma-induction and Cognitive Enhancement in FTD (Gamma-Induction in FrontoTemporal Dementia, GIFTeD)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is an interventional, sham controlled, double-blind study designed to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of 40 Hz transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), a form of noninvasive brain stimulation, delivered for 6 weeks once daily in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) patients. Cognition, gamma EEG activity and brain metabolism via FDG-PET will be measured before and after the tACS intervention.
