Neural Network Analysis of Musculoskeletal Responses to Electrical AC-Stimulus

Abstract

Analyzing the human body by the application of alternating electrical currents is not a widely known method in medicine. In our research, we stimulated test persons exposing them to different low frequencies and measured their responses to them. This method, known as FAM (Frequency Analysis Method), can be used to estimate the physiological condition of patients. In this study, we present a method of processing the results using neural networks. By producing user-friendly visual data, the processing method aids a physiotherapist in the interpretation of the results, resulting in a more reliable diagnosis.
