Patent No. 6506148 Nervous system manipulation by EM Fields from monitors (Loos, Jan 14, 2003)    Abstract Physiological effects have been observed in a human subject in response to stimulation of the skin with weak electromagnetic fields that are pulsed with certain frequencies near 1/2 Hz or 2.4 Hz, such as to excite a sensory resonance. Many computer monitors and TV tubes, when displaying pulsed images, emit pulsed electromagnetic fields of sufficient amplitudes to cause such excitation. It is therefore possible to manipulate the nervous system of a subject by pulsing images displayed on a nearby computer monitor or TV set. For the latter, the image pulsing may be imbedded in the program material, or it may be overlaid by modulating a video stream, either as an RF signal or as a video signal. The image displayed on a computer monitor may be pulsed effectively by a simple computer program. For certain monitors, pulsed electromagnet

  Patent No. 6238333 Remote magnetic manipulation of nervous systems (Loos, May 29, 2001)  Abstract Apparatus and method for remote manipulation of nervous systems by the magnetic dipole field of a rotating bar magnet. Reliance on modulation of spontaneous spiking patterns of sensory nerve receptors, and exploitation of a resonance mechanism of certain neural circuits, allows the use of very weak magnetic fields. This, together with the large magnetic moments that can be obtained with a permanent bar magnet, makes it possible to effectively manipulate the nervous system of a subject over a distance of several hundred meters, using a small portable battery-powered device. The method can be used in law enforcement for standoff situations.  Get EMF Protection Today!   Notes: SUMMARY Oscillatory magnetic fields induce electric fields in exposed biological tissue and can therefore act on nerves. Considerable tissue electric fie

Patent No. 7033598 Methods and apparatus for enhanced and controlled delivery of a biologically active agent into the central nervous system of a mammal

  Patent No. 7033598 Methods and apparatus for enhanced and controlled delivery of a biologically active agent into the central nervous system of a mammal (Lerner, Apr 25, 2006)  Abstract: Disclosed are invasive and non-invasive central nervous system (CNS) drug delivery methods and devices for use in these methods that essentially circumvent the blood-brain barrier. More specifically, the disclosed methods and devices utilize iontophoresis as delivery technique that allows for enhanced delivery of a biologically active agent into the CNS of a mammal as well as for (pre)-programmable and controlled transport.   Notes: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to delivery methods and devices for effectively introducing a biologically active agent into deeper layers of the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). More specifically the invention relates to both invasive and non-invasive methods and devices for en
