Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a well-established therapy to relieve pain in subjects with chronic pain. In this therapy, electrical currents are delivered to the dorsal column (DC) of the spinal cord via electrodes implanted in the epidural space.

Around 60 years ago, it was established that Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) responds within fixed-time windows to changes in the systemic Arterial Blood Pressure (ABP). This finding and better technology motivated much research in the 1990s, giving rise to a new research field named Cerebral Hemodynamics (CH), which analyzed the transient states of these two and other signals in humans.
