Hi Elie, the stimulation is done epidurally - in the outermost part of the spinal canal. As such, it never touches the spinal cord itself and thus doesn't damage it.
Are the leads actually touching the spinal cord? Wouldn't that cause any damage to the cord as it is very fragile? I want to find more information about this study. Does someone have any direct contact with the subject?
