While spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a well-established therapy to address refractory persistent spinal pain syndrome after spinal surgery (PSPS-T2), its lack of spatial selectivity and reported discomfort due to positional effects can be considered as
Poor correlation between spinal cord injury load and clinical disability may be due to several different factors. Spinal cord MRI is more challenging than brain imaging in patients with MS. The spine is extremely thin and commonly subjected to ghosting artifacts (due to breathing, swallowing, and/...
