Non-invasive Neurostimulation as a Tool for Diagnostics and Management for Neurodegenerative Diseases

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Double blinded, sham-controlled, randomized trial on repeated transcranial alternating current brain stimulation (tACS) in neurodegenerative diseases. The investigators will evaluate whether a 4-times daily repeated stimulation with gamma tACS on the posterior parietal cortex can improve symptoms in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, including dementia with Lewy Bodies, Alzheimer's disease, idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Frontotemporal dementia.
