- Diane Newman is joined by Anne Agur to share how they collect data to develop novel models of the human saphenous nerve. These novel models of the human saphenous nerve will be used to develop neuromodulation therapy approaches, both an engineering finite element approach, and for clinicians to look at electrode placement. The 3D data provides a very precise in situ map of the distribution of the...
