Summary

The primary objective of this study is to identify the brain regions in which activity is affected by SCS. Baseline cerebral blood flow scans with the device turned off will be generated compared to scans produced with the device operating at parameters which produce optimal coverage of the painful areas. The relationship between cerebral blood flow and pain rating scores will be evaluated in both conditions.
