BackgroundChronic pain is a major healthcare problem associated with maladaptive brain circuit changes - many patients are unresponsive to all available therapies. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a promising treatment, but traditional targets have not proven consistently effective. DBS for pain may be improved by individualizing location and timing of stimulation based on real time brain measurements and patient reports. MethodsTo optimize personalized stimulation targets, we first performed a ...
