Non‐Invasive Brain Stimulation in Chronic Pain: Current Evidence, Network Perspectives and Paths to Personalization

Sensory Neuroscience, Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2026.
Chronic pain reflects maladaptive network interactions across sensory, salience/affective, and descending modulatory pathways. We review evidence for non‐invasive brain stimulation—rTMS, tES, and low‐intensity focused ultrasound—highlighting modest, variable, and often short‐lived analgesic effects under conventional protocols.
