Cervical transcutaneous spinal stimulation for spinal motor mapping [PDF]
iScience, 2022 Summary: Transcutaneous spinal stimulation (TSS) is a promising approach to restore upper-limb (UL) functions after spinal cord injury (SCI) in humans. We sought to demonstrate the selectivity of recruitment of individual UL motor pools during cervical ...
