A neuromonitoring framework supporting the intraoperative placement of an epidural spinal cord electrode array for functional restoration in people with paraplegia
Targeted stimulation of dorsal nerve roots of the lumbosacral spinal cord (SC) represents a promising way to improve lower extremity functions for people with paraplegia due to SC injury. Stimulation pulses are selectively applied at different segments of the SC by means of an implanted electrode ar...
