Examples of computed tomography (CT) and X-ray images confirming epidural implantation of the leads and position of the channels. Arrows indicate the 6 channels (Ch1-Ch6). A An example of a dorsal CT image confirming the area covered (T12-L3) by the epidural lead (SNI animal). B An example of a lateral CT image confirming the area covered (T12-L3) by the epidural lead. The inset shows a transverse section of the spinal cord, showing the position of the lead in the spinal epidural space (SNI animal). C An example of a lateral X-ray image confirming the area covered (T12-L2) by the epidural lead (sham animal). Ch: channel. SNI: spared nerve injury
