Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 17:
18. A neuromodulation method for providing therapy to a target neural tissue of a patient, the method comprising:
applying noninvasive stimulation to the target neural tissue over a period of time to predict efficacy of a treatment using at least two pairs of electrodes, wherein a placement of the at least two pairs of electrodes based on interrogating a temporal interference (TI) pattern database having a plurality of TI patterns for different combinations of electrode placement configurations, number of electrode pairs, a range of amplitudes corresponding respectively to a first input waveform and a second input waveform, and a range of frequencies corresponding respectively to the first input waveform and the second input waveform; and
responsive to a prediction of treatment efficacy, applying an invasive stimulation therapy to the target neural tissue using a select set of stimulation parameters.
