Spinal cord

Analysis of the computed recruitment order of an ensemble of ventral and dorsal root fibers should enlighten the relation between the position of a bipolar electrode and the observed order of muscle twitches. ⋯ Our simulations demonstrate a strong relation between electrode position and the order of muscle twitches which is based on the segmental arrangement of innervation of lower limb muscles. The proposed strategy allows the identification of the position of the electrode relative to spinal cord segments.
