Claim Text:
1. A headset apparatus, comprising: a retainer; a first electrode configured to connect to the retainer at a first position; a second electrode configured to connect to the retainer at a second position; the retainer comprising a substantially inflexible portion shaped to fit a temporal region of a head of a subject, the temporal region being adjacent to an ear of the subject, the portion being shaped to maintain, when the retainer is oriented on the head of the subject: at least one electrical conductor enabling the first electrode and the second electrode to be connected in a circuit, such that when the first electrode is in the first position and the second electrode is in the second position and the first and second electrodes are connected to a circuit through which current flows, the retainer, the first electrode, and the second electrode cooperate to enable current to flow from one of the first and second electrodes on a first side of the MCA through the lateral cerebral ventricle and to another of the first and second electrodes on a second side of the MCA, opposite the first side, wherein the retainer is adapted to maintain relative positions of the first electrode and the second electrode with respect to one another.
