Brain electrical stimulation, particularly non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques such as transcranial electrical stimulation (tES), have emerged as a promising treatment for various psychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. tES techniques, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), and transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS), are cost-effective and safe interventions that are designed to affect neuronal circuits in the brain using various modalities. Although tES has shown effectiveness in the treatment of psychiatric disorders, there is a lack of comprehensive papers that consider its clinical implications. Therefore, this review aims to evaluate the clinical implications of tES and provide practical guidance for the treatment of psychiatric illnesses. Moreover, this review provides an overview of tES techniques and their mechanisms of action and summarizes recent clinical studies that have examined the use of tES for psychiatric disorders.
脑电刺激，尤其是非侵入性脑刺激（NIBS）技术，如经颅电刺激（tES），已成为治疗各种精神疾病的一种有前景的方法，这些精神疾病包括抑郁症、焦虑症和创伤后应激障碍。tES技术，如经颅直流电刺激（tDCS）、经颅交流电刺激（tACS）和经颅随机噪声刺激（tRNS），是具有成本效益且安全的干预措施，旨在通过各种方式影响大脑中的神经回路。尽管tES已显示出对精神疾病治疗的有效性，但缺乏考虑其临床意义的综合性论文。因此，本综述旨在评估tES的临床意义，并为精神疾病的治疗提供实用指导。此外，本综述概述了tES技术及其作用机制，并总结了最近研究tES用于精神疾病治疗的临床研究。
