Title:
SYSTEM FOR NEUROMODULATION COMPRISING ELECTRODES AND MEANS FOR DETERMINING AN ELECTRODE FRACTIONALIZATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/039296
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system includes electrodes on at least one lead (2280) configured to be operationally positioned for use in modulating a volume of neural tissue, a neural modulation generator configured to deliver energy using at least some electrodes to modulate the volume of neural tissue and a programming system configured to program a modulation parameter set, including determine electrode fractionalizations for the electrodes based on a target multipole. The modulation parameter set may include the electrode fractionalizations. The neural modulation generator may be configured to use the modulation parameter set to provide a linear electric field over the volume of tissue.
