Low-frequency electromagnetic stimulation: exploring the (sub) cellular mechanisms in ischemic stroke Hasselt University
Despite the high prevalence and devastating outcome, there are only few treatment options for ischemic stroke. Our project aims to explore magnetic stimulation (MS) as a new therapeutic tool. Preliminary data of our laboratory indicates that MS increases survival and neurological outcome in rats and gerbils subjected to severe permanent stroke. MS induced migration of endothelial cells (which align the blood vessels) and production of the ...
