Focused Ultrasound for the Treatment of Neuropathic Pain

NCT04485208 · Status: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2022-09-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A possible treatment approach for neuropathic pain would employ a process designed to promote healthier function of the ventral posteromedial (VPM) and ventral posterolateral (VPL) thalamic nuclei. This study is designed to employ focused ultrasound technology to target the VPM and VPL thalamus among participants with ongoing neuropathic pain syndromes to evaluate for tolerability and early efficacy.

Conditions

  • Neuropathic Pain

Interventions

DEVICE

Focused Ultrasound

The DWL Doppler ultrasound device enables visual and auditory waveform confirmation of the anterior cerebral artery, and optical tracking technology (e.g., AntNeuro Visor2™ system) may be used in tandem with the Brainsonix Pulsar 1002 ultrasound device to track a patient's brain in virtual space as well as their physical location, thereby ensuring accurate placement.
