Background: The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of transcranial direct current stimulation on improving depression in stroke patients. Subjects and Methods: forty hemiparetic stroke patients from both sexes diagnosed with post stroke depression represent the sample of this study. The patients' ages ranged from 45 to 60 years with a mean value of 55.475 ± 4.01 years. They were assigned randomly into two groups equal in number; the study group A (GA) and the control group B (GB). The control group GB treated by the prescribed medication only and sham TDCS. The study group GA treated by the same prescribed medications for depression as the control GB in addition to transcranial direct current stimulation for 30 minutes, three times per week for one month. Depression was evaluated by Hamilton Depression scale pre and post treatment in both groups and quality of life was evaluated by The Stroke Specific Quality Of Life scale
