Scientists scan brains to unlock opioid Addiction's grip on decisions

NCT ID NCT06312657

Summary

This study aimed to understand how the brain makes decisions in people with opioid use disorder. Researchers used brain scans and simple choice games to see what happens in the brain when people with opioid dependence make decisions. The study was very small and ended early, so it was only for gathering information, not for providing treatment.
