Study Summary
This is a single-site, phase 2, sham-controlled random-order cross-over pilot trial of PLIFUS targeting the right GPi in individuals with schizophrenia. Twelve individuals with schizophrenia who report continuous hallucinations or delusions of mild or greater severity will receive one session of PLIFUS and one session of sham PLIFUS in random order, one week apart. If no effect of PLIFUS is detected on measures of functional connectivity or psychotic symptoms in the first four completers, the trial will be changed to 3 sessions of PLIFUS or sham administered over 5 days.
Primary Outcome
Change in GPi functional connectivity measured via functional MRI (fMRI) captured pre-sonication and 10 minutes post-sonication during the PLIFUS intervention visit.
