Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique that uses constant low-intensity direct current (1 to 2 mA) to regulate neuronal activity in the cerebral cortex. In recent years, tDCS has received more and more attention as a tool to explore human brain function and treat various neurological diseases. However, there is still a lack of systematic and comprehensive reviews in the tDCS treatment of post-stroke dysfunction. This article reviews the treatment of post-stroke dysfunction with tDCS, integrates relevant basic research and clinical research in recent years, summarizes and discusses the theoretical mechanism and application effect of tDCS in the treatment of post-stroke dysfunction, so as to provide a basis for further research.
