Official title
Real-Time Evaluation of Severity of Perceived Pain in Patients With Cancer by Using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), and Investigation of Pain Relief Utilizing Virtual Reality Technologies
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study aims to develop objective tools for assessing perceived pain severity in cancer patients and survivors, evaluate the sustained effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions such as virtual reality in reducing pain and medication use, and create tools for the early detection of neuropathy. Wireless, non-invasive neuroimaging methods, including functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), will be used to support these objectives
