Abstract
A noninvasive/minimally invasive neuromodulation system and method for providing therapy to a target neural tissue of a patient. In one arrangement, an example method comprises applying at least two input waveforms to respective pairs of electrodes affixed on the patient's skin or subcutaneously disposed relative to the target neural tissue, wherein the frequencies of the input waveforms are configured such that they combine, when simultaneously applied, to generate a beat waveform having a beat frequency due to interference. The beat waveform is causative of a transcutaneous/subcutaneous temporal interference (T/STI) electric field generated in the patient body, the T/STI electric field including an interference region at least partially overlapping the target neural tissue of the patient, wherein the beat frequency is of a value operative to impart a therapeutic effect to the target neural tissue.
