Clinical trials: Regional Blood Flow
Pain, Low Back Pain
Changes in Cerebral Blood Flow in Patients Treated With Spinal Cord Stimulation for Low Back and Leg Pain
The primary objective of this study is to identify the brain regions in which activity is affected by SCS. Baseline cerebral blood flow scans with the device turned off will be generated compared to scans produced with the device…
