Popis: Neuromodulation is the alteration of nerve activity through targeted delivery of a stimulus, such as electrical stimulation or chemical agents, to specific neurological sites in the body. Here, in addition to historical perspectives, we expansively discuss the pain-relieving mechanisms of neuromodulation, referring frequently to the basic translation and clinical literature and devoting particular attention to spinal cord stimulation.
