Zusammenfassung:	To provide a stimulation device for selectively and reversibly modulating targeted neural and non-neural tissue of a nervous system for the treatment of pain.SOLUTION: In a stimulation device 100, an electrical stimulation generated by a signal generator 140 and a control device 130 electrically coupled to a power source 180 is delivered to a treatment site N via an electrode 120 and selectively and reversibly modulates the targeted neural- and non-neural tissue of the nervous structure, inhibiting pain while preserving other sensory and motor functions and proprioception.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】疼痛の治療のために神経系の標的神経組織及び非神経組織を選択的かつ可逆的に調節するための刺激装置を提供する。【解決手段】刺激装置１００は、電源１８０に電気的に結合される制御装置１３０および信号発生器１４０によって発生した電気刺激が、電極１２０を経由して治療部位Ｎに送られ、神経構造の標的神経組織及び非神経組織を選択的及び可逆的に調節し、他の感覚及び運動機能、並びに固有受容を維持しながら疼痛を抑制する。【選択図】図１
