Abstract: Methods and systems apply biphasic DC signal at various frequencies, durations and/or amplitudes to areas of a cancer patient's body being targeted for preventing or alleviating cancer-therapy side effects. Microcurrent therapy can be provided prior to, during and after procedures used to treat cancer. During microcurrent treatment a biphasic DC signal can be applied from a microcurrent therapy system to an area of the cancer patient's body targeted for microcurrent treatment using at least one electrode. The electrode can be actively manipulated on the treatment area for a predetermined time. The system can provide impedance matching between it and the patient during treatment. A feedback module provides a controller impedance information between the patient and system where a mismatch is used to adjust the system to overcome impedance variations that occur between said system and said patient's body during the predetermined time of treatment.

Abstract: The present technique provides a method of remediating the toxicities associated with radiation therapy. A conductive gel is applied to the affected bodily area. A sinusoidally pulsed biphasic DC current is then applied to the affected bodily area using at least one electrode. The electrode is manipulated using active tactile manipulation by for a predetermined time and the frequency of the sinusoidally pulsed biphasic DC current is decreased during the course of the treatment. The method also includes applying a spiked pulsed biphasic DC current to the affected bodily area using at least one electrode. This electrode is also manipulated using active tactile manipulation by for a predetermined time and the frequency of the spiked pulsed biphasic DC current is also decreased during the course of the treatment.
