This session explores emerging applications of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) beyond conventional uses. Experts will present cutting-edge research and clinical advancements in SCS for respiratory control, sensory restoration, cardiovascular regulation, and bladder control—rapidly evolving areas that hold significant therapeutic potential but remain underexplored in the traditional neuromodulation space.
