Diagnosis, treatment, and research of brain disorders

A Cranial Electric Stimulator (CES), for facilitating return to brain homeostasis and having a computer (PC) running a computer program for operating a diagnosis mode, a treatment mode, a research mode and a test mode, and comprising an array of designated electrodes adapted to be attached in distribution onto a skull of a patient, the CES comprising:

• a workstation operated by a practitioner and coupled to a signal and routing box (SRB), to which the array of electrodes is coupled, the workstation being programmed to command the SRB to:
• in the diagnosis mode:
• generation of predetermined alternating current diagnosis input signals for injection via a first pair of electrodes,
• sampling and measurement of induced voltage signals collected across the first pair of electrodes, and
• injection and measurement being repeated sequentially for all the combinations of pairs of electrodes out of the array of electrodes, wherein each one of pair electrodes defines a path in the brain, for detection of a signal passage condition along a defined path;
• in the treatment mode:
• generation of predetermined alternating current input treatment signals injected for relief of a condition detected in the diagnosis mode;
• and
• in the research mode:
• generation of selected alternating current research diagnosis input signals permitting injection into and retrieval of output signals from the brain, and selecting injection of alternating current research treatment input signals.
