Two years of Functional Electrical Stimulation by large surface electrodes for denervated muscles improve skin epidermis in SCI
Our previous studies have shown that severely atrophic Quadriceps muscles of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients suffering with complete conus and cauda equina lesions, and thus with permanent denervation-induced atrophy and degeneration of muscle fibers, were almost completely rescued to normal size...
