  • Patent number: 12390659
    Abstract: A self-administrable apparatus for performing non-invasive neurostimulation therapy of a living mammal on-demand, said self-administrable non-invasive neurostimulation apparatus comprising: one or more configured irradiation units comprising a portable hollow casing having fixed dimensions, a sized internal spatial volume and an external surface configuration suitable for application to a body, and a controller assembly able to control on-demand delivery of light energy from said configured irradiation units into an interior part of the body in-vivo.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 19, 2025
    Inventor: Lew Lim
  • Patent number: 11633621
    Abstract: A novel photobiomodulation (PBM) system and method that comprehensively directs therapeutic light energy into the brain from a combination of transcranial (through the skull) and intranasal (via the nasal channels) locations. In a preferred embodiment, the PBM device works in combination with a diagnostic tool to provide enhanced treatment of abnormal brain function intelligently, automatically, and unrestricted by geographical distances.

  • Patent number: 10632325
    Abstract: The present invention is a portable non-invasive system, apparatus and method for performing light therapy or photobiomodulation upon the brain tissues through the skull and/or nostrils of a living mammalian subject for the medical purpose of stimulating the brain in-vivo. The present invention utilizes the transcranial and/or intranasal pathways as points of anatomic access and follows established principles for the conceptual approach that irradiation of the brain tissue with low level light energy of certain fixed parameters would achieve major therapeutic effects in-vivo.
