Abstract
Systematic studies with pathological subjects with focal and general epilepsies using magnetoencephalographic (MEG) measurements showed significant brain activities even if they are not present in the electroencephalogram EEG. Using a mapping technique characterized by an isospectral amplitude (ISO-SA) of the scalp distribution of specified spectral components or frequency bands of the MEG power spectrum we were able to localize the epileptic foci. This localization of epileptic foci gives us information on the emitted magnetic field intensity and frequency for each focal point on the map of the patient. Using this information we can cure the patient by adjusting an electronic device which can emit back to the specific scalp point a magnetic field of the same intensity and frequency as the one which-is emitted from it. The principle of this technique is based on the physical phenomenon of Young's double-slit experiment by which under certain condition light plus light gives darkness.
