==OPTIMAL MULTI-ELECTRODE TRANSCUTANEOUS STIMULATION WITH HIGH FOCALITY AND INTENSITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18332091 titled 'OPTIMAL MULTI-ELECTRODE TRANSCUTANEOUS STIMULATION WITH HIGH FOCALITY AND INTENSITY

==Simplified Explanation==

Methods, apparatus, and systems have been developed to optimize transcutaneous stimulation for precise and focused stimulation of target tissues such as the spinal cord, brain, or other internal organs. These techniques involve the use of a realistic 3D model generated from CT/MRI images and an optimization algorithm.

* The patent application describes a method for designing optimal parameters for transcutaneous stimulation.
* The method includes generating a 3D model from CT/MRI images of the target tissue.
* An optimization algorithm is used to determine the optimal parameters for stimulation.
* The algorithm allows for stimulation of any target location with any orientation, ensuring high precision.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Medical treatments involving transcutaneous stimulation of target tissues such as the spinal cord, brain, or internal organs.
* Rehabilitation therapies for patients with neurological disorders or injuries.
* Research studies investigating the effects of transcutaneous stimulation on specific target tissues.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Precise and focused stimulation of target tissues can be challenging to achieve using traditional methods.
* Designing optimal parameters for transcutaneous stimulation can be time-consuming and complex.
* The use of a realistic 3D model and an optimization algorithm helps overcome these challenges and enables more accurate and efficient stimulation.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved precision in transcutaneous stimulation, leading to better targeting of specific tissues.
* Time and cost savings in the design of optimal stimulation parameters.
* Enhanced effectiveness of medical treatments and rehabilitation therapies.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed for optimization techniques and a realistic 3D model to design optimal parameters for transcutaneous stimulation to achieve focalized stimulation of a target tissue such as the spinal cord, brain or other internal organ. The methods, apparatus, and systems include generation of a 3D model from a CT/MRI image, as well as an optimization algorithm that enables stimulation of any target location (e.g., on the dorsal root, or on the dorsal column) with any orientation at high precision.
