Four hypothetical patient scenarios will be presented to the panel for debate and discussion. The presentations are (1) central post-stroke pain, (2) at-level spinal cord injury, (3) low back and leg pain following lumbar decompression and (4) chest wall pain in a cancer pain patient following thoracotomy. The faculty will then debate and discuss the potential utility of neuromodulation with particular attentions to
