Despite the high prevalence and devastating outcome, there are only few treatment options for ischemic stroke. Our project aims to explore low-frequency electromagnetic stimulation (LF-EMS) as a new therapeutic tool for this disease. Recent data of our laboratory indicate that LF-EMS increases survival and neurological outcome in rats and gerbils subjected to severe permanent ischemic stroke. LF-EMS induced migration of endothelial cells (which ...
