Study Summary

This study will evaluate a new form of non-invasive deep brain therapy for individuals with generalized chronic pain. Low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation will first be delivered using a range of stimulation parameters during psychophysical and physiological monitoring. A well-tolerated stimulation protocol will be selected for subsequent testing in a blinded randomized sham-controlled cross-over trial. The trial will evaluate brain target engagement using magnetic resonance imaging and CVAS and PROMIS numerical rating scales of pain.

Primary Outcome

MRI quantification of blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) activation.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Verum stimulation with Diadem prototype
  • DEVICE Sham stimulation with Diadem prototype
