The neuromodulator is the power source of the spinal cord stimulator system. It can be either internally implanted, acting as a generator; or remain external and transmit via a radiofrequency system coupled to an internally implanted receiver. The neuromodulator produces the electric currents that are then transmitted to the spinal cord.
