Abstract :
This paper describes a new modification of non-invasive biomedical monitoring of psychosomatic processes. The proposed method is based on skin conductivity measurements by interdigitated array (IDA) of microelectrodes, which allows continual monitoring and analyzing of complicated physiological, pathophysiological and therapeutic processes. Main goal is to monitor psycho-galvanic reflex of the human skin in medical and psychological experiments
