en el caso de las lesiones, ya que las que se producen en el SNP son localizadas y más fáciles de tratar, todo lo contrario que las que ocurren en el SNC, que
dan lugar a problemas globales y en extensas zonas. 

Neurotransmisores que intervienen en estas dos partes del sistema nervioso, ya que en el SNC son numerosos, como la serotonina, dopamina,
norepinefrina, glutamato, acetilcolina, GABA, etc., y en el SNP son solo dos, norepinefrina y acetilcolina.
