Defining Normative Mixed-Breed Ovine Spine Anatomy Using Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Open
The availability of suitable preclinical models is critical for developing novel therapeutic interventions. Ovine models are particularly useful for studying spinal diseases due to their similarity in size and weight to humans. However, ev…

Using evoked compound action potentials to quantify differential neural activation with burst and conventional, 40 Hz spinal cord stimulation in ovines Open
Introduction and Objectives: Unlike conventional dorsal spinal cord stimulation (SCS)—which uses single pulses at a fixed rate—burst SCS uses a fixed-rate, five-pulse stimuli cluster as a treatment for chronic pain; mechanistic explanation…

The Impact of Burr Hole Device and Lead Design on Deep Brain Stimulation Lead Stability in Benchtop and Ovine Models Open
These measurements quantitatively demonstrate that DBS system design can positively improve lead translational and rotational stability and show that system design is an important consideration for future product development.
