New Ultrasound Device Shows Promise for Chronic Pain Relief

University of Utah researchers develop Diadem, a noninvasive device that offers significant pain reduction after a single session.

  • Diadem uses ultrasound to target deep brain regions, addressing faulty pain signals.
  • Recent trials show 60% of participants experienced meaningful pain relief after one treatment.
  • The device also demonstrated potential benefits for depression in separate trials.
  • Researchers are preparing for Phase 3 clinical trials to seek FDA approval.
  • Participants are being recruited to validate the device's efficacy for broader use.
