Motor cortex neurostimulation technologies for chronic post-stroke pain: implications of tissue damage on stimulation currents

Motor cortex neurostimulation technologies for chronic post-stroke pain: implications of tissue damage on stimulation currents

Background: Central post stroke pain (CPSP) is a highly refractory syndrome that can occur after stroke. Primary motor cortex (M1) brain stimulation using epidural brain stimulation (EBS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) have been explored...
