Remote non-invasive biofeedback diagnostic system based on patient image
First Claim
1. A medical diagnosis biofeedback system based on a patient image comprising:
- a central processing unit including a situation-generating sub-system in a computer readable memory for producing a series of predetermined patient-specific visual images including at least an outline of a target area of diagnostic interest, said central processing unit also including means for receiving a biofeedback signal from a user exposed to said images;
a consciousness induction unit including a first means for visually displaying the patient image and a second means for visually displaying the outline of a target area of diagnostic interest to the user to cause a heightened state of consciousness and intuition of the user, and a detection/evaluation unit equipped with noise generator that remotely senses the noise changes constituting the biofeedback response of the user, wherein a biofeedback loop is formed between said central processing unit sending said predetermined patient-specific visual images to said consciousness induction unit to be displayed to the user, said detection/evaluation unit sensing the response of biofeedback of the user representing the user'"'"'s response to said images, said detection/evaluation unit further generating an electrical signal reflecting said biofeedback response and sending said electrical signal back to said central processing unit.

Abstract
A non-invasive remote diagnostic system includes a central processing unit (CPU) adapted to feed an image of a patient such as a digital photograph to be displayed to an operator by a first computer monitor. A second computer monitor is displaying a realistic outline of a target area of diagnostic interest such as an outline of a human organ or a particular portion thereof. These two monitors together with a CPU are adapted to induce a state of heightened consciousness and intuition of a system operator. A detecting/evaluating unit is sensing non-invasively the operator'"'"'s biofeedback response while the operator is exposed to the images. The biofeedback response is converted to an electrical signal and is fed back into the CPU to compare against a predetermined database of similar signals obtained from volunteers with known diseases. The biofeedback signal allows a non-invasive remote diagnosis of a patient'"'"'s state of health.
