What it concerns

The present invention relates to functional neuroimaging biomarkers of brain injury recovery, the use of such biomarkers in methods to predict brain injury recovery and methods for personalized brain rehabilitation.

The abstract as published by the patent office, from WO2024065052A1. It describes the invention; it is not a statement of what is protected.

What the filing appears to be about, read by published rules from its title, abstract and classification codes (A61B2505/09, A61B5/0042, A61B5/0075, G16H20/30, G16H50/20). The claims define what a patent protects, and they are not read here.

Why it matters

Interface and electrodes
Everything downstream works with what the contacts pick up. Their number, size and distance from the neurons set the ceiling on the signal. The problem behind it: more contacts, closer to neurons, that still record after years in tissue that reacts to them.

Why the layer matters to the field, not a judgement of this filing. A patent family shows that protection was sought. It does not show that the technology was built, is used in a product, or works in people. The whole stack
