Electrical safety in spinal cord stimulation: current density analysis by computer modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The possibility of tissue damage in spinal cord stimulation was investigated in a computer modeling study. A decrease of the electrode area in monopolar stimulation resulted in an increase of the current density at the electrode surface.

Isolated and silent spinal neurocysticercosis associated with pseudotumor cerebri

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2008
Incidence of spinal neurocysticercosis (NCC) is rare. Isolated spinal NCC is still rarer. We present here a case report where a young lady presented with all the clinical features of pseudotumor cerebri (PTC), where medical treatment for PTC failed and ...
