Methods and systems for providing electrical stimulation to a patient's spinal cord using electrode leads implanted in the patient's spinal column are described. Embodiments involve cycling between durations during which stimulation is actively applied and durations when no stimulation is applied. The stimulation can be configured such that pain relief washes in during the active stimulation duration and continues for some part of the duration when no stimulation is being applied. Eventually the pain relief may wash out. The washout time may be modeled, so that stimulation may be resumed before the pain relief washes out. The stimulation may be below the patient's perception threshold.

System and method for adaptive neural stimulation

A system may be used with a medical imaging system and a programming system. The medical imaging system may be configured to display a medical image and the programming system may be configured to implement a program used in programming a neuromodulation device. The system may comprise a mobile device having at least one processor, a camera and a user interface including a display. The mobile device may be configured to acquire a displayed medical image from the medical imaging system, determine based on the acquired medical image location data indicative of the position of at least one of the electrodes relative to at least one of the anatomy or at least another one of the electrodes, and provide the location data for use by the program implemented by the programming system.
