Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for determining treatment options from at least two electrical readings. The electrical readings are conductivity measurements of a particular region on the human body. The system utilizes a correlation algorithm to determine the diagnosis which can easily be correlated with appropriate treatments. The correlation algorithm may include the analysis of multiple electrical readings in determining the diagnosis. The system may also utilize a database of clinical data to further assist in determining the diagnosis.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for obtaining an electrical signal from a patient that corresponds to a meridian. The present method contemplates locating a dermal area of a patient proximate a meridian. One embodiment of the present invention comprises locating a dermal area by iteratively measuring and comparing the conductivity of a patient's skin until a significant level of conductance is indicated. A probe may then be placed in contact with the dermal area, and actuated to obtain an electrical signal therefrom. The probe tip may be specially designed to apply an appropriate amount of pressure to the dermal area to directly sense a meridian, and configured to avoid erroneous measurements resulting from misalignment of the probe or probe tip.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing and using an enhanced bioelectric sensing surface to facilitate locating and obtaining a bioelectric resistance value from a patient for therapeutic and/or diagnostic purposes. In one implementation, a bioelectric probe tip includes a conductive base having a configuration. An abrasive bristly conductive surface is coupled to or otherwise provided on a surface area of the conductive base, wherein the abrasive bristly conductive surface includes a plurality of bristles. Multiple bristles are able to simultaneously contact a surface layer of a patient's skin to enable the bioelectric probe tip to locate and obtain a bioelectric resistance value from the patient.
