Direct Stimulation Of Spinal Nerve Roots To Determine Sensory And Motor Innervation Patterns

Direct Stimulation Of Spinal Nerve Roots To Determine Sensory And Motor Innervation Patterns

Description
Description

In this large scale study it is proposed to examine root-to-muscle innervation directly, using the standard Intra-Operative Monitoring procedures during scheduled cervical and lumbar spinal surgeries. The study would directly map muscle and sensory distributions of nerve root innervations with no additional risk to patients.
