Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for inducing a controlled fluid transport in a central nervous system, CNS, and/or in a cerebrospinal fluid, CSF system, of a patient by electro-osmosis, EO, via two or more electrodes placed at selected locations on the patients head, comprising receiving EO information, the EO information being at least indicative of fluid transport response resulting from application of particular electric potentials and/or currents at particular electrode locations on the patient's head based on a patient-specific three-dimensional head model, receiving a fluid source location within the patient's head, selecting a set of electrode locations using the EO information and the fluid source location, placing the two or more electrodes in electrical communication with said CNS/CSF-system, each electrode being placed at one location of the selected set of electrode locations, and controlling an application of selected electric potentials and/or electric currents to said electrodes, wherein the selected electric potentials and/or electric currents is selected as electric potentials and/or electric currents associated to the selected set of electrode locations …
