Transcranial electric stimulation (TES) is an emerging technique to non-invasively modulate brain function. However the spatiotemporal distribution of electric fields during TES remains poorly understood.In this study we perform direct intracranial measurements of the electric field generated by transcranial alternating current (tACS) in epilepsy patients and cebus monkeys and evaluate the capacity of finite element method (FEM) models to predict the spatial distribution of measured electric fields.
