Aversive bodily sensations such as pain, breathlessness and tinnitus are very common. Initially, they serve an important protective function by motivating behaviors that support recovery and healing. However, when these sensations persist and turn into chronic bodily symptoms, they cease to be protective, and elicit significant suffering, disability, and costs. The interdisciplinary ASTHENES research program aims at improving our ...
Epicranial cortical stimulation: development and evaluation of a novel, minimally invasive, neuromodulation method KU Leuven
Invasive cortical stimulation (ICS) is an neuromodulation method in which electrodes are implanted on the cortex to deliver chronic stimulation. ICS has been used to treat neurological disorders such as neuropathic pain, movement disorders and tinnitus. A significant disadvantage of ICS is its highly invasive nature. Noninvasive neuromodulation methods such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial current stimulation show great ...
Early sensorineural biomarkers for arthroprosthetic cobaltism. Ghent University
Metal ion release into the body is an inevitable consequence of any implanted metal device. An
example of metal implants consists the current generation of metal-on-metal (MoM) hip
prostheses, which are predominantly comprised of cobalt and chromium. Excessive bodily uptake
of cobalt ions, formed by friction and corrosion processes between the metal surfaces, may cause
adverse local tissue ...
