First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study looks at whether brain scans can help predict which people with chronic low back pain will get good pain relief from spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Researchers will scan the brains of 42 adults before they receive SCS as part of their normal care, then check their pain and mood two weeks after treatment. The goal is to find brain activity patterns that could help doctors choose the best candidates for SCS in the future.
