Summary
This study looks at how virtual reality (VR) affects pain in the brain. Twenty healthy children aged 6 to 17 will wear a blood pressure cuff to create mild pain and a brain scanner while using VR games, a VR video, or an iPad game. The goal is to find brain signals that show when VR is helping to reduce pain. This is not a treatment study—it is designed to understand how VR works in the brain so future pain treatments can be improved.
