Abstract

Neuromodulation is the alteration of neural activity in the central, peripheral, or autonomic nervous systems. Consequently, this term lends itself to a variety of organ systems including but not limited to the cardiac, nervous, and even gastrointestinal systems. In this review, we provide a primer on neuromodulation, examining the various technological systems employed and neurological disorders targeted with this technology. Ultimately, we undergo a historical analysis of the field's development, pivotal discoveries and inventions gearing this review to neuro-adjacent subspecialties with a specific focus on neurointerventionalists.
