An system may include an electrode arrangement configured for implantation in an epidural space, a neural modulation generator configured to use electrodes in the electrode arrangement to generate modulation fields, at least one storage and a controller operably connected to the neural modulation generator. The storage(s) may be configured to store supra-perception threshold dorsal root modulation field parameter data and therapeutic modulation field parameter data, where the therapeutic modulation field parameter data may be different than the supra-perception threshold dorsal root modulation field parameter data. The system may be configured to deliver a placement modulation field from the electrode arrangement in the epidural space to the dorsal roots using the supra-perception threshold dorsal root modulation field parameter data, and deliver a therapeutic modulation field from the electrode arrangement placed in the desired position within the epidural space to a therapeutic neural target using the therapeutic modulation field parameter data.
