Abstract
A position is formulated according to which the therapeutic effect of a puncture action is a result of the correction of defects in the human autodiagnostic system (ADS). The structure and functions of the ADS are examined from the points of view of pattern recognition, neurocomputing, and neurophysiology. The necessary conditions that the ADC must satisfy are formulated. It is shown that the theoretical conditions are satisfied by Rexed's laminae, which are a part of the central nervous system and form the grey matter of the spinal cord. The available biochemical and morphological data are utilized in an examination of the operating mechanism of Rexed's laminae as a whole (as an ADS) and each lamina individually (as neuroprocessors that perform specific functions). Potential defects in the recognition system and methods for their correction by signals produced at biological active points by EHF puncture are examined.
