Quantification of dorsal column fiber responses in a model of kilohertz-frequency spinal cord stimulation

Introduction: Kilohertz-frequency spinal cord stimulation (KHF-SCS) was recently proposed as a paresthesia-free treatment for persons with chronic pain that is potentially more effective than conventional (~ 50 Hz) SCS. In SCS, the applied electrical …

Effects of frequency-dependent membrane capacitance on neural excitability

Objective. Models of excitable cells consider the membrane specific capacitance as a ubiquitous and constant parameter. However, experimental measurements show that the membrane capacitance declines with increasing frequency, i.e., exhibits …
