Abstract: Methods and systems monitor a patient's mobility and range-of-motion (ROM) for a patient's head and neck area. Monitoring can be provided prior to, during and after associated therapy. At least one large protractor having an outer and an inner surface and including a circular scale including a vertex located along said at least one large protractor's inner surface can be selectively suspended above and in front of a patient measurement location. The at least one large protractor can be adapted for equidistantly positioning a patient's head away with respect to said circular scale of said at least one large protractor in a manner that the patient is generally centered and positioned comfortably in front or beneath the vertex of said at least one large protractor. A head mountable harness including securing means adapted for temporary attachment of a laser about said head mounted harness.

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.
