Abstract :
In this paper, the reasoning arguments for proposing the chaotic signal therapy (CSTE) and the corresponding etiology are given, and the animal tests of CSTE are reported. The animal tests show that the CSTE can significantly postpone and weaken seizures of Bemagle-induced epilepsy and can also decrease incidence of mild epilepsy. These experimental results are in agreement with the cases of some volunteer epileptics, reported by Xu et al. (1998), and strongly support the corresponding etiology: the cerebral decrease in chaotic characteristics is a causation of epilepsy
