    Abstract:
    It has been established that transcranial micropolarization causes ultrastructural changes in the intracerebral components of the blood- and CSF-brain barriers. The changes observed in the electron density of the limiting and basal membranes, edema of the processes, changes in the vascular endothelium and in the intercellular fissures of the brain are characterized by a reactive rather than a destructive character. An assumption is discussed that an increase in barrier permeability can be explained by the influence of micropolarization, which may in turn lead to altered properties in the cerebral internal medium itself. Transcranial microdepolarization is recommended for correcting the physiological processes in the brain and for altering the permeability of the blood- and CSF-brain barriers.
