1. A neurostimulation system for concurrent use with different sets of electrodes, comprising:

  • a neurostimulator configured for delivering electrical stimulation energy to a tissue region in accordance with a stimulation parameter, thereby injecting a charge into the tissue region at the different sets of electrodes;

    an external control device configured for programming the neurostimulator with the stimulation parameter; and

    control circuitry configured for determining a value of the charge injected into the tissue region at each of the different sets of electrodes by the delivered electrical stimulation energy, and for subsequently directly controlling the charge injected independently at each of the electrode sets respectively based on the determined values.
