In certain types of chronic pain, spinal cord stimulation is an effective treatment. By applying an electric field to the spinal cord, pain signals relayed to the brain are attenuated, resulting in pain relief (analgesia). Despite impressive results in so

在某些类型的慢性疼痛中，脊髓刺激是一种有效的治疗方法。通过对脊髓施加电场，传递到大脑的疼痛信号被减弱，从而缓解疼痛（镇痛）。尽管在这方面取得了令人印象深刻的成果，
