- G. Grantet al.: "Protection Against Focal Cerebral Ischemia Following Exposure to a Pulsed Electromagnetic Field," Department of Neurosurgery, Stanford University, California, Bioelectromagnetics 1994. - This study shows that electromagnetic stimulation leads to more rapid healing and repair of damage to cerebral arteries. Studies on rats have shown a positive effect of pulsating electromagnetic fields in the treatment of strokes.

Gorbunov et al.: "The Effect of Combined Trans-cerebral Magnetic and PEMF on the Cerebral and Central Hemodynamic Status of Stroke Patients in the Early Rehabilitation Period," Vopr Kurortol Fizioter Lech Fiz Kult (3), May-June 1996, pp. 21-24. - These study results prove that treatment of apoplexy patients with PEMF in combination with a stimulus current in the early phase of rehabilitation yields the best results.
- B. Baychev et al.: "Evaluating the Effect of PEMF on Vasculo-Vegetative and Motor Disorders in Stroke Patients," Kurortol-Fizioter. 27/3 1990. - Thirty-five stroke patients were examined on the basis of various clinical test methods. After 15 days of treatment with PEMF an improved blood supply in both halves of the brain and a clinical improvement especially in the area of the hemiplegia were found. Motor abilities were restored more rapidly and the tendency to spastic symptoms was definitely reduced. PEMF was tolerated very well by the patients and proved to be quite beneficial both in the acute and subacute phases after a stroke.
- R. Cadossi: "Protective Effect of Electro-magnetic Field Exposure on Acute Soft Tissue Ischemic Injury," Second World Congress for Electricity and Magnetism in Biology and Medicine, June 8-13, 1997, Bologna, Italy. - Pulsating electromagnetic fields develop a protective mechanism against necrosis in acute ischemia. This experiment was proven on the brains of rats.
