Measurement of photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal is widely used to assess metabolic conditions of monitored tissues. Probes were designed to acquire physiological changes through the spine induced by external stimulation. In vivo results demonstrate that such probes can be deployed to monitor and analyze autonomic functions of the spinal cord.
