[The use of transcranial electrostimulation for pain relief in cancer patients].
The report discusses whether transcranial electrostimulation in cancer patients can be accepted. A number of tumors were inhibited in an experiment using 120 rats. The procedure used in 80 cancer patients was followed by favorable changes in the concentration of several hormones. The antinociceptive action of electrostimulation is similar to that of narcotic analgetics.
