Invented machine that can treat depression and a number of mental disorders



Within the walls of the Research Institute of the Southern Federal University Neurocybernetics invented the device to operate the brain stimulation, which allows to treat depression and a number of mental illnesses.

According to scientists, the device allows you to control the stimulation of different areas of the brain using a magnetic field, or other impacts on biological feedback, which means it adapts to the rhythm of stimulation of the brain of the patient. Due to the individual approach to each individual effect is enhanced.

The device does not yet have a name and looks like a small box with LEDs, which is embedded between standard devices and magnetic encephalography stimulant and is designed to manage physical therapy stimulation. This stimulation may be different areas of the brain using magnetic field in the cortical and if this specialized powerful devices, and the subcortical regions. It is used to treat a variety of diseases, including depression, Parkinson's disease, migraine headaches.

With the new device, you can achieve better results in the treatment of psychological and psychosomatic diseases.

Development of the device was carried out over 15 years. There is only one analogue device, which is created in Finland, but it is intended for research, not for treatment. And it costs 40 million rubles. Russian instruments, according to preliminary estimates, will cost up to 40 times cheaper.

Development of the device is still going on one of the main tasks of scientists see in obtaining permission to work with people. At the moment, scientists are conducting tests on himself.
