Description
Functional neurological disorder brings real symptoms with no clear structural cause, and care for it has long lagged. Jon Stone, writing alone in 2026, asks what digital health care could do about the gaps. The gaps span diagnosis, treatment, and how services reach patients at all. Large data sets, from biobanks and clinics, could show how common the disorder is and what it costs.
Stone lists six ways digital tools might help, from AI-aided assessment to home therapy and wearable tracking. New options like biofeedback and virtual reality therapy also get a look. Risks get equal time: loss of personal touch, privacy breaches, and patients shut out by poor access. The piece argues that new tools should extend human care, not replace it.
