Assignee: BOSTON SCIENTIFIC NEUROMODULATION CORPORATION
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 14:
15. A non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to implement a method, wherein the method includes:
receiving user-controlled directional control signals;
providing a graphical representation of moving a generalized ideal multipole in response to the directional control signals by modifying variable values, wherein the generalized ideal multiple includes a reference ideal pole of a first polarity and a plurality of ideal poles of a second polarity, and wherein the variable values define at least one of (1) one or more spatial relationships for at least one of the reference ideal pole or the plurality of ideal poles or (2) fractionalized values for the plurality of ideal poles; and
instructing an electrical neurostimulator to convey electrical energy to a plurality of electrodes in accordance with the modified variable values.
