Polygraph utilizing medical imaging

Abstract

Abstract An improved polygraph method of achieving real time determination of the veracity of an individual by direct observation of synaptic activity via medical imaging, such as provided by Positron Emission Tomography or Functional Magnetic Resonance. Given situations where non factual statements are made by a given test subject, higher order brain functions which affect secondary and tertiary functions and autonomic activity in the Cerebellum, Pons, and Medulla Oblongata, offer significant and observable synaptic action when juxtaposed with similar reference conditions where the individual is truthful. The disclosed invention eliminates error prone interpretation of conventional polygraph results, which relay on heart rate, blood pressure, skin conductance, respiration rate, voice stress, and body motion or expressions, thus offering a significantly improved means of determining truthful cooperation of a given subject.
