Figure 1. Human spinal cord model and the transcutaneous electrodes.

Figure 1

(A) Two-dimensional spinal cord model and the extruding direction to form the three-dimensional model. (B) The three-dimensional full spinal cord model with the stimulation electrode placed on the surface of the skin. The side length of the electrode is 1 cm. The surface highlighted in blue color is defined as the stimulation surface. (C) The spinal cord model with the return electrode. The side length of the return electrode is 5 cm. The surface highlighted in blue color is defined as the return surface. (D) The central cross-sectional surface of the spinal cord model across the centers of the stimulation surface and the return surface. (E) Detailed view of the cross-sectional surface of the spinal cord. A central line across the center of the stimulation surface and the return surface is defined in red. (F) Magnified view of the central parts of the spinal cord.
