Electrical or biochemical stimulation of organs via implanted devices promises new treatment opportunities for a large number of diseases or symptoms from headaches to tremors to spinal cord damage to urinary incontinence. With such a broad therapeutic scope, and significant ongoing improvements in biotechnology, it is not surprising that neuromodulation is poised as a major growth industry for the next decade. Treatments with neuromodulation have already been applied successfully in chronic pain relief, deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment for Parkinson's disease, sacral nerve stimulation for pelvic disorders and incontinence, spinal cord stimulation for ischemic disorders (angina, peripheral vascular disease), and more. "Neuromodulation" is the first comprehensive and in-depth reference textbook to cover all aspects of the field including fundamentals of neuromodulation, bioengineering considerations, and clinical uses.…
