Electrophysiological Studies on the Impact of Repeated Electroconvulsive Shocks on Catecholamine Systems in the Rat Brain
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) effectively treats depression by administration of repeated seizure-inducing electrical stimuli. Sprague-Dawley rats were administered 6 electroconvulsive shocks (ECS) over 2 weeks, and in vivo single unit extracellular electrophysiological activity was recorded after...
