Postsynaptic dorsal column pathway activation during spinal cord stimulation in patients with chronic pain
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) treatment for chronic pain relies on the activation of primary sensory fibres ascending to the brain in the dorsal columns. While the efficacy of SCS has been demonstrated, the precise mechanism of action and nature of the fibres activated by stimulation remain largely...
