A new study shows that coating neural prosthetic implants with the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone helps reduce the body’s immune response and scar tissue formation.

While examining donor dorsal root ganglia in 2022, UTD researcher Stephanie Shiers kept noticing a curious structure: microscopic balls of dead sensory neurons ringed by satellite glial cells, a ...

In the study, researchers found that injury to peripheral axons of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons results in sensory dysfunction, such as pain. This occurs at higher rates in aged individuals.

Abstract Nageotte nodules in human dorsal root ganglia reveal neurodegeneration in diabetic peripheral neuropathy Nageotte nodules, first described in 1922 by Jean Nageotte, are clusters of ...

Abbott announced the launch of its neuromodulation business’ next-generation delivery system, which will be used to streamline the implantation process for electrodes used as part of its Proclaim DRG ...

New delivery system, designed for Abbott's Proclaim™ DRG neurostimulation system, promotes efficient placement of neurostimulation leads on the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) Abbott's system is the only ...

In patients with lumbar radicular pain (LRP), adjuvant therapy with pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) energy applied to the lumbar dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was found to provide superior analgesia 3 ...

The basal ganglia are located in the brain stem, thalamus, and cerebral cortex areas of the brain. Being in the brain, they are part of the CNS, not the PNS, as other ganglia are. Clusters of neuronal ...

The FDA has approved expanded MRI labeling for Abbott’s dorsal root ganglion stimulation therapy, which allows those with complex regional pain syndrome to receive full-body MRI scans while ...
