AB  - Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been developed rapidly in 
      recent years and derived various forms which serve as therapeutic tools for 
      neurological disorders. However, differences of stimulation effect among these 
      stimulation strategies have not been fully explored. In this pilot study, we 
      compared the stimulation effect between High-definition tDCS (HD-tDCS) and 
      Network-based tDCS (NB-tDCS) on a healthy subject. HD-tDCS mainly stimulated 
      primary motor cortex with 2mA current and NB-tDCS was designed to stimulate main 
      motor-related areas including primary motor cortex, premotor cortex and 
      supplementary motor area with the same amount of current in total. 
      Cortico-muscular coherence (CMC) derived from EEG/EMG, which measures the 
      synchrony between cortical neural activity and muscles, was collected from 
      isometric wrist extension tasks. The results demonstrated more motor-related 
      regions excited and longer high-level lasting effect after NB-tDCS compared with 
      HD-tDCS, which indicated the potential power of multi-site stimulation. This 
      study might provide some guidance and hints for transcranial stimulation 
      strategies in the future.
