a. Specific Aims Advancements in both neuroscience and engineering have provided neurosurgery with new paradigms for the restoration of neural function. In particular, the dual emergence of accurate stereotaxis and deep brain stimulation (DBS) have generated a revolution in the application of targeted neuromodulation. DBS allows for focused reversible inhibition of neural function, while advanc...
متن کاملPurinergic Signalling in the CNS
Purinergic neurotransmission, involving release of ATP as an efferent neurotransmitter was first proposed in 1972. Later it was recognised as a cotransmitter in peripheral nerves and more recently as a cotransmitter with glutamate, noradrenaline, GABA, acetylcholine and dopamine in the CNS. Both ion channel and G protein-coupled receptors for purines and pyrimidines are widely expressed in the ...

متن کاملIs pulsed radiofrequency a neuromodulation technique?
In this issue of Neuromodulation, J. Van Zundert et al. have published an article titled, Percutane-ous pulsed radiofrequency treatment of the cervi-cal dorsal root ganglion in the treatment of chronic cervical pain syndromes: A clinical audit (1). The question that our readers might ask is this: Is pulsed radiofrequency neuromodulation? It is the opinion of these authors that it is. The exact ...
متن کاملSpinal Cord Stimulation: The Clinical Application of New Technology
The use of neuromodulation for pain relief is among the fastest-growing areas of medicine, involving many diverse specialties and impacting on hundreds of thousands of patients with numerous disorders worldwide. As the evidence of efficacy improves, the interest in spinal cord stimulation (SCS) will increase because it is minimally invasive, safe, and a reversible treatment modality with limite...
