A method of determining brain stimulation parameters includes applying Low Frequency Stimulation (LFS) to a contact of a multi-contact electrode implanted in a target structure in an individual's brain. Evoked Compound Activity (ECA) evoked in the target structure by the LFS is measured. A range of frequencies for delivering brain stimulation within a predetermined range based on a phase space extracted from the ECA is determined. Stimulation frequencies are applied to the contact of the multi-contact electrode within the determined range of frequencies. High Frequency Oscillations (HFO) evoked in the target structure by the applied stimulation frequencies within the determined range are measured. A frequency evoking HFO above a predetermined threshold is determined. The determined frequency is selected as a treatment frequency for the target structure.

The present invention relates generally to the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS), kits for use in the methods, and pharmaceutical compositions for use in the methods of treatment. The invention specifically relates to the diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of CIRS through a comprehensive approach comprising an assessment of a subject for case definition parameters and a proteogenomic analysis. The proteogenomic analysis for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of CIRS is based on identifying proteins and/or genes that are differentially expressed in subjects suffering from CIRS compared to healthy subjects.

A novel medical imaging system that is based on radio-wave signals at microwave frequencies and has unique properties. The system can be used for various diagnostic applications such as breast cancer detection, brain stroke detection, and assessment of internal bleeding (trauma emergencies).

Methods and systems for monitoring use, determining risk, and pricing insurance policies for a vehicle having one or more autonomous or semi-autonomous operation features are provided. According to certain aspects, an identity of a vehicle operator may be determined and a vehicle operator profile and/or operating data regarding autonomous operation features of the vehicle may be received after the vehicle operator opts into a rewards program and agrees to share their data. Autonomous operation and vehicle operator risk levels associated with operation of the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle may be determined. Based upon the risk levels and/or comparison thereof, one or more autonomous operation features may be disengaged. A preparedness level of the vehicle operator to assume or reassume control of operating the vehicle is determined prior to disengagement. If satisfactory, an alert is presented to the vehicle operator prior to disengagement of the autonomous operation features.

The optical spectroscopy system may comprise: a light transmission unit for irradiating light to a particular region of a subject by means of a light source, wherein the light is irradiated so that the overall energy is consistently maintained by reducing the light irradiation time and increasing the strength of the light; and a light receiving unit for collecting emergent light which has passed through the particular region.

A device for measuring brain oxygen level of a subject, including a probe (210) and a detecting means (220), which are respectively coupled to a processor (230). According to the example, the probe (210) includes three light sources (215a, 215b, 215c) that simultaneously emit the first, second, and third NIR wavelengths across the brain of the subject. The first NIR wavelength is the isosbestic wavelength for oxy-hemoglobin (HbO2) and deoxy-hemoglobin (Hb), the second NIR wavelength is shorter than the first NIR wavelength, and the third NIR wavelength is longer than the first NIR wavelength. The detecting means (220) includes a first, second and third detectors (221, 222, 223) for respectively detecting the NIR intensities of the first, second and third NIR wavelengths traveled across the brain. The processor (230) is configured to determine blood oxygen level based on the measured NIR intensities of the first, second and third NIR wavelengths by use of build-in algorithm derived from Beer-Lambert Law. And method of detecting brain hematoma of a subject by use of the present device.

The present disclosure relates to systems for providing wireless power to implanted devices. Consistent with some embodiments, an antenna system for providing wireless power to an implanted device includes a primary antenna loop and at least one parasitic antenna loop. The primary antenna loop is configured to receive power from a power source and radiate the power toward the implanted device. The at least one parasitic antenna loop is configured to absorb a portion of the radiated power and to reradiate the absorbed power toward the implanted device. The power radiated by the primary antenna loop and the power reradiated by the at least one parasitic antenna loop form a wireless power transmission pattern broadly distributed at the surface of the individual's skin and becomes more focused as it travels into the individual's body toward the implanted device. The broad distribution pattern at the surface of the skin reduces the specific absorption rate of the transmission while focusing the transmission as it toward the implanted device improves the antenna system's transfer efficiency.

This invention, which focuses on personality and aptitude matching by psychophysiologic response to stimuli, is referred to as Brain Matching. In general terms, this invention starts by selecting highly specialized skill sets and top performer group for each skill set. The various groups are analyzed though psychophysiologic stimuli testing by using basically the same testing consisting of large numbers stimuli tests in a consistent testing environment. Stimuli tests can range from hundreds to thousands of images each producing a brainwave response. Neural Networks, Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning computers look at the test results, highly specialized group by other highly specialized group to reduce the groups signature/response commonality into a template. Test subjects are then tested using the same stimuli. The subject's test results are analyzed for correlation with the various specialized expert groups.

A method for measuring an intracranial fluid bioimpedance in a patient's head, to help detect an abnormality, may involve: securing a volumetric integral phase-shift spectroscopy (VIPS) device to the patient's head; measuring the intracranial fluid bioimpedance with the VIPS device by measuring a phase shift between a magnetic field transmitted from a transmitter on one side of a VIPS device and a magnetic field received at a receiver on another side of the VIPS device, at one or more frequencies; and detecting an abnormality in the intracranial bioimpedance fluid, using a processor in the VIPS device.
