Modulating nociception networks: the impact of low-intensity focused ultrasound on thalamocortical connectivity. [PDF]

Brain Commun
Abstract Pain engages multiple brain networks, with the thalamus serving as a critical subcortical hub. This study aims to explore the effects of low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound-induced suppression on the organization of thalamocortical nociceptive networks. We employed MR-guided focused ultrasound, a potential non-invasive
