As it appears our brain can be very easily fooled. Step by step basic principles of the brain, such as feedback and feedforward mechanisms, general pattern generators, integration of cortico-lymbic loops and consequences for usefulness of Telemedicin will be discussed. The overall conclusion is that the human brain is very well suited for treatment through Telemedicin.
