Transcranial alternating current stimulation of the cerebellum (ctACS) is an emerging neuromodulation technique that can potentially be leveraged to treat neurological disorders and improve learning in healthy individuals. Yet, the effects of ctACS on the neuronal circuits of the cerebellum is elusive. We implanted carbon fiber bundle electrodes in the interpositus nucleus of the cerebellum and an array electrode on the posterior surface of the skull for stimulation in chronic rats.

Introduction: Placement of a spinal cord stimulator (SCS) is a neuromodulatory technique with several indications, including persistent spinal pain syndrome type 2 (PSPS2), painful diabetic neuropathy, non-surgical chronic low back pain, and complex regional pain syndrome. SCS is conventionally placed in a caudal to cranial fashion (anterograde), yet there are cases such that spinal fusion hardware and adhesions prevent this insertion technique.

Case Presentation: Our patient is a 57-year-old man with PSPS2 who had extensive spinal fusion and epidural scarring extending from the sacrum to T10.

The gradient coils of MRI equipment can induce vibrations in implantable medical devices, causing periodic vibrations of implantable medical devices with respect to the surrounding tissue. This not only results in instrument failure but also causes discomfort to the patient. Therefore, studying the vibration characteristics of implantable devices under different scanning sequences and the orientation of the device relative to the magnetic field is crucial for comprehending vibration performance.

Transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) is an effective technique to modulate brain activity and treat diseases. However, TES is primarily used to stimulate superficial brain regions and is unable to reach deeper targets. The spread of injected currents in the head is affected by volume conduction and the additional spreading of currents as they move through head layers with different conductivities, as is discussed in Forssell(2021046042).
