Electrical stimulation is assumed to augment the adaptive plasticity of the neighboring brain around the region of stroke and to enhance motor recovery in stroke models. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of anodal cortical stimulation for enhancement of motor recovery in rat stroke model. This study used a photothrombotic model of stroke to examine the behavioral effect of cortical stimulation. Sprague-Dawley rats were trained on a task of single pellet reaching (SPR) before surgery.
