Spinal Cord Stimulation may be recommended for carefully selected patients experiencing chronic neuropathic or other treatment-resistant pain. The procedure begins with placement of stimulation leads in the epidural space under imaging guidance. During a trial, the stimulation settings are adjusted to determine whether meaningful pain relief is achieved. If successful, a permanent pulse generator is implanted beneath the skin and connected to the leads. Regular follow-up helps optimize stimulation settings and monitor the device.
