“…Several ongoing RCTs are assessing at-home tDCS as a treatment for BED. Our group is administering 10 sessions of concurrent at-home real/ sham tDCS and attention bias modification training [46], and Elkfury et al [47] are combining at-home tDCS with a nutritional counselling therapy, delivering these separately or concurrently in a multi-arm RCT. tDCS in Mixed ED Samples One study [48] examined the effects of tDCS on implicit preferences for food and body images across EDs (AN n = 21; BN n = 13; or ED not otherwise specified n = 2).…”

Purpose of Review We review recent evidence on the use of neuromodulation for treating eating disorders (EDs), including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. We evaluate studies on (a) modern non-invasive methods of brain stimulation, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), (b) electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and (c) more invasive techniques, including deep brain stimulation (DBS). Recent Findings Most reports on the clinical applications of neuromodulation in EDs are limited to case studies, case series and small clinical trials. The majority have focused on severe, enduring and hard-to-treat cases of AN. In this population, data suggest that both rTMS and DBS have therapeutic potential and are safe and acceptable. Summary High-quality clinical trials in different ED populations are needed which investigate different stimulation methods, sites and parameters, the use of neuromodulation as stand-alone and/or adjunctive treatment, as well as the mechanisms of action.
