Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Patient indicated for Spinal Cord Stimulation therapy in accordance with the approved labeling.
- Patient's pain profile indicates appropriate lead placement would be at one or more levels from T7 to T10, to achieve pain coverage.

- Patient is considered by the Study Investigator as a candidate for implantation of a spinal cord stimulator system according to the system Instructions for Use.
- Patient is >18 years of age at the time of enrollment.
- Patient is willing to adhere to the study requirements, including compliance with and completion of all study visits.
- Patient has signed and received a copy of the Ethical Committee/Independent Review Board approved informed consent.
