Energy Optimal Stimulation Waveforms, Or Not: Comments on "An Investigation of Neural Stimulation Efficiency With Gaussian Waveforms".

We read with interest the recent publication on the efficiency of neural stimulation with Gaussian-shaped stimulation waveforms [1]. We were gratified that the authors chose to follow up on our work designing waveform shapes to minimize the energy required to stimulate nerve fibers [2]. The results are in remarkable agreement with our published simulations and experimental measurements on the rela...
