SKNY-1’s Weight Reduction Without Significant Changes in Food Consumption Suggests a Potential Role for Energy Expenditure, Contrasting With Semaglutide’s Initial Food-Intake Suppression and Significant Post-Treatment Increase

MIAMI, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MIRA) (“MIRA” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing novel oral therapeutics, today announced initial positive proof-of-concept results from an exploratory pilot study evaluating SKNY-1, its investigational oral drug candidate for obesity and metabolic disorders.

Conducted in an established diet-induced obesity (DIO) mouse model, the study demonstrated statistically significant reductions in body weight and fat mass following oral administration of SKNY-1 compared with vehicle-treated controls.

Importantly, weight reduction occurred without a statistically significant decrease in food consumption, raising the possibility that SKNY-1 may influence metabolic pathways beyond appetite suppression.

The study also identified three potentially meaningful areas of differentiation from the semaglutide reference group: effects on food intake, lean-mass outcomes, and weight regain following treatment discontinuation. Together, these findings expand upon previous SKNY-1 research and support its continued development as a potentially differentiated oral approach to weight management.

“Obesity represents one of the largest and fastest-growing opportunities in healthcare, with the potential for multiple multibillion-dollar therapies,” said Erez Aminov, Chief Executive Officer of MIRA Pharmaceuticals. “We believe the future of obesity treatment will extend beyond a single class of drugs. Patients have different needs, and there is tremendous opportunity for innovative therapies that work through distinct mechanisms and offer favorable profiles for long-term weight management. What makes SKNY-1 particularly exciting is that our findings point toward a potentially differentiated metabolic approach, with encouraging signals regarding body composition and weight maintenance following treatment discontinuation. We believe these characteristics could become important advantages as we continue advancing SKNY-1, positioning it as a potentially valuable asset within our pipeline and an opportunity to participate in this significant global market.”

Key Findings From the SKNY-1 Pilot Study

Statistically Significant Weight and Fat Reduction

Oral SKNY-1 demonstrated statistically significant reductions in body weight and fat mass compared with vehicle-treated controls. The majority of the treatment-associated weight difference was attributable to fat reduction, providing encouraging evidence of SKNY-1’s activity in an established obesity model.

Favorable Lean-Mass Findings Compared With the Semaglutide Reference Group

At the Day 14 body-composition assessment, oral SKNY-1-treated mice did not demonstrate statistically significant lean-mass loss relative to vehicle controls.

In contrast, semaglutide-treated mice demonstrated statistically significant lean-mass loss compared with vehicle-treated controls.

Limited Weight Regain Following Treatment Discontinuation Compared With Semaglutide

During the two-week observation period following treatment cessation, oral SKNY-1-treated mice demonstrated slow and limited weight regain.

In contrast, semaglutide-treated mice experienced rapid and substantial weight rebound, which was accompanied by a statistically significant increase in food consumption relative to vehicle controls, while oral SKNY-1-treated groups showed no statistically significant increase in food consumption.

Investigating a Potentially Differentiated Metabolic Mechanism
The study’s findings raise the possibility that SKNY-1 may influence energy expenditure, energy utilization, or other metabolic pathways involved in weight regulation, rather than relying primarily on appetite suppression.

These observations provide a scientific rationale for investigating SKNY-1’s potentially differentiated metabolic mechanism.

“One of the most intriguing findings from this pilot study is that SKNY-1 produced significant weight reduction without a statistically significant decrease in food consumption,” said Dr. Itzchak Angel, Chief Scientific Advisor of MIRA Pharmaceuticals. “The contrasting observations in lean-mass outcomes and weight regain following treatment discontinuation compared with the semaglutide reference group are also scientifically interesting. Together, these findings raise the possibility that SKNY-1 may influence how the body utilizes energy, potentially offering a differentiated metabolic approach to weight management. These results further expand and confirm previous studies, which have demonstrated increased energy expenditure without changes in food intake.”

“Our next study will investigate this hypothesis more directly through measurements of energy expenditure and other metabolic parameters, while further characterizing SKNY-1’s effects on body composition and weight regulation.”

Continued Development of SKNY-1
MIRA is advancing SKNY-1 through longer-term preclinical studies to further assess weight reduction, body composition and metabolic effects, while continuing its IND-enabling development activities and chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC) manufacturing efforts to support future clinical development.

About SKNY-1
SKNY-1 is MIRA Pharmaceuticals’ investigational oral drug candidate being developed for obesity and metabolic disorders. The compound is a cannabinoid analog being investigated for its potential effects on biological pathways involved in metabolic regulation.

Previously published preclinical research in a zebrafish model of obesity demonstrated approximately 30% weight reduction, accompanied by maintenance of whole-body density, reductions in hepatic triglyceride accumulation, and changes in appetite-related signaling.

The latest pilot study in diet-induced obese mice expands this exploratory research into a mammalian obesity model, providing additional evidence of SKNY-1’s potential as an oral therapeutic candidate for obesity.

  • U.S. FDA clears IND for Phase 2 study of VT-7208 in chronic spontaneous urticaria; additional Phase 2 studies planned in food allergy and relapsing multiple sclerosis
  • Company expands pipeline through research collaboration of a novel, oral macrocyclic peptide-based neonatal Fc receptor antagonist program from Generian Pharmaceuticals
  • Sheila Gujrathi, M.D., appointed Executive Chair of Processa’s Board of Directors
  • Cash runway expected to fund operations into the second half of 2029

VERO BEACH, FL, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Processa Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCSA) (“Processa” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing VT-7208, a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor therapy for immune-mediated diseases, today announced continued execution following its acquisition of Vidya Therapeutics (“Vidya”). Progress includes U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of the investigational new drug (IND) application for a Phase 2 study of VT-7208 in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), expansion of the pipeline through a research collaboration with Generian Pharmaceuticals, and the appointment of Sheila Gujrathi, M.D., as Executive Chair of the Board of Directors.

Processa is advancing VT-7208, a next-generation, CNS-penetrant, once-daily oral BTK inhibitor, across three Phase 2 proof-of-concept programs, including CSU, food allergy and relapsing multiple sclerosis. These programs provide multiple opportunities to evaluate VT-7208 across distinct immune-mediated diseases. The acquisition was accompanied by an approximately $200 million private placement from leading institutional healthcare investors. The Company expects its current cash resources to support operations into the second half of 2029.

“Since the Vidya transaction, we have made great progress in executing our strategy,” said Dr. Gujrathi. “The FDA clearance of the CSU IND is an exciting step toward advancing VT-7208 across three planned Phase 2 programs. At the same time, the Generian collaboration expands our pipeline around another high-value, clinically validated immune target. With funding in place to support these programs, our focus is on disciplined execution and generating the data needed to demonstrate the potential of the portfolio.”

“Sheila has been an invaluable partner to the Board since the Vidya transaction, and her experience building biotechnology companies, advancing clinical programs and creating long-term value makes her well suited to lead the Board through this next phase,” said Justin Yorke, former Chair of the Processa Board of Directors. “We are pleased to have her step into the Executive Chair role as Processa advances its clinical strategy and broader pipeline.”

FDA Clears IND for Phase 2 Study of VT-7208 in CSU

The FDA has cleared the IND application for VT-7208 in CSU, enabling Processa to advance the program into a Phase 2 study in adults with moderate-to-severe disease.

The planned multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is expected to enroll approximately 120 adults whose disease is not adequately controlled with H1 antihistamines. The study will evaluate VT-7208 versus placebo over 12 weeks and assess efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacologic activity.

CSU is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by recurrent hives, swelling or both without an identifiable external trigger and affects an estimated 1.6 to 2 million U.S. adults. Despite available therapies, a meaningful proportion of patients remain inadequately controlled, underscoring the need for additional treatment options.

Pipeline Expansion Through Research Collaboration

Processa also announced that it has entered into a research collaboration and exclusive option agreement with Generian Pharmaceuticals, a UPMC Enterprises portfolio company that emerged from the UPMC/University of Pittsburgh ecosystem for breakthrough science, to advance a novel oral macrocyclic peptide-based neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) antagonist program, further expanding Processa’s immunology pipeline.

The collaboration targets a clinically validated mechanism for treating IgG-mediated autoimmune diseases and supports the companies’ shared strategy of developing differentiated oral therapeutic alternatives to currently available injectable FcRn therapies. The program complements VT-7208 and reflects Processa’s broader strategy to selectively expand its pipeline around clinically validated immune targets, using capital-efficient structures that provide access to novel programs while preserving flexibility as the science matures.

Sheila Gujrathi Appointed Executive Chair

Dr. Gujrathi has been appointed Executive Chair of the Processa Board of Directors. She has served on the Board since Processa’s acquisition of Vidya in June 2026, where she was founder and its executive chair. In this expanded role, she will support the management team on corporate strategy, capital allocation and organizational development.

Dr. Gujrathi is a physician-scientist, biotechnology entrepreneur and drug developer with extensive experience building biotechnology companies and advancing therapies in immunology. Her prior leadership roles include Executive Chair of Ventyx Biosciences, Chair of Turning Point Therapeutics, Chair of ADARx Pharmaceuticals, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Gossamer Bio, and Chief Medical Officer of Receptos.

ABOUT PROCESSA PHARMACEUTICALS

Processa Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company advancing innovative drug candidates through a disciplined, science-driven development strategy. Following the acquisition of Vidya Therapeutics, Processa’s lead program is VT-7208, a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor therapy for immune-mediated diseases. VT-7208 is a potentially best-in-class BTK inhibitor (BTKi) designed to improve on the efficacy and safety of early-generation programs. Processa is developing VT-7208 in three parallel programs: food allergy and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) in immunology, and relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) in neurology, where its CNS-penetrant profile addresses an area of high unmet need. With Phase 1 complete, the company intends to advance all three programs toward Phase 2 proof-of-concept studies.

Drilling continues at D Zone as GoldHaven explores a silver-rich mineralized system sharing key geological characteristics with Coeur Mining’s Silvertip deposit

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GoldHaven Resources Corp. (“GoldHaven” or the “Company”) (CSE: GOH) (OTCQB: GHVNF) (FSE: 4QS) is pleased to announce that its inaugural 2026 diamond drilling program at its flagship Magno Project in northwestern British Columbia has reached approximately 3,000 metres, with exploration advancing across its high-grade silver-lead-zinc and tungsten targets.

Recent drilling at D Zone has encountered multiple intervals of semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralization, further advancing GoldHaven’s exploration of a silver-lead-zinc system sharing key geological characteristics with Coeur Mining’s Silvertip deposit. Drilling continues across additional targets, with laboratory assays pending.

Highlights

  • Over 3,000 metres drilled: GoldHaven reaches a significant milestone in its inaugural 2026 drilling program at Magno, targeting both silver-lead-zinc and tungsten mineralization.
  • High-grade historical silver: Previous D Zone drilling reported 7.6 metres grading 240 g/t silver, 4.73% lead and 4.74% zinc.
  • High-grade silver surface samples: GoldHaven’s 2025 exploration program returned up to 2,370 g/t silver at Magno and 1,390 g/t silver at Middle D.
  • Silvertip geological comparison: Magno exhibits carbonate replacement-style mineralization, including manto and chimney-style features also characteristic of Coeur Mining’s Silvertip deposit.
  • Additional massive sulphides intersected: Drill hole GOH26-15 encountered approximately 18.5 metres of massive sulphide and 9 metres of semi-massive sulphide mineralization, with assays pending.

Advancing Silver-Lead-Zinc Exploration at D Zone

Further to the Company’s October 22nd news release, which described four of the first five completed drill holes at Middle D intersecting semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralization, the latest diamond drill hole in this area (GOH26-15) has intersected approximately 18.5 m and 9 m of massive sulphide and semi-massive sulphide mineralization, respectively. This is in addition to the previously announced GOH26-10 and GOH26-13 which encountered cumulative visually identified mineralized intervals of approximately 10.75 metres and 13 metres, respectively, across separate intervals. True widths are unknown.

The mineralization includes visible galena and sphalerite, with drilling continuing to evaluate the geometry and potential continuity of the system. Laboratory assays remain pending.

CEO Commentary:

“Reaching 3,000 metres in our inaugural drill program is an important milestone, but we’re particularly encouraged by the silver-lead-zinc potential emerging at D Zone,” commented Rob Birmingham, President and CEO of GoldHaven.

“Magno shares compelling geological characteristics with Coeur Mining’s Silvertip deposit. With multiple sulphide intersections and assays approaching, we’re excited to further evaluate the potential of this system.”

GoldHaven’s Magno Project Shares Key Geological Characteristics with Coeur Mining’s Silvertip Deposit

GoldHaven’s Magno Project is situated within the Cassiar Terrane of northern British Columbia, the same regional geological setting that hosts Coeur Mining’s Silvertip silver-lead-zinc deposit, a well-established carbonate replacement deposit (CRD).

Magno exhibits several geological characteristics associated with the Silvertip model, including carbonate-hosted silver-lead-zinc mineralization, manto- and chimney-style replacement features, and multiple mineralized zones. These similarities provide an established exploration framework for evaluating the broader potential of Magno’s polymetallic system.

GoldHaven is integrating modern geophysical data, geological mapping and ongoing drilling to better understand the distribution and potential continuity of mineralization across its more than 37,000-hectare property.

The comparison is geological in nature only. Mineralization at Silvertip is not necessarily indicative of mineralization at Magno, and no mineral resource has been established at D Zone.

Next Steps

GoldHaven’s near-term exploration activities include:

  1. Continuing drilling across additional targets within the D Zone system.
  2. Completing laboratory analysis and reporting assay results following QA/QC review.
  3. Integrating geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to evaluate the distribution and potential continuity of mineralization.

The Magno Project covers more than 37,000 hectares in the Cassiar District and hosts multiple exploration targets, including silver-lead-zinc mineralization at D Zone and Magno, together with tungsten-bearing skarn systems at Kuhn and Dead Goat.

Technical Notes

The historical 7.6-metre D Zone intersection has not been independently verified and is not necessarily indicative of current drill results. Previously reported sulphide intervals are cumulative visual downhole measurements from separate intervals, not true widths, and do not establish laboratory assay grades or economic mineralization. Grab samples are selective and are not representative of deposit-wide grades.

For the three months ended July 31, 2026, we recorded a net loss attributable to Rafael Holdings of $9.2 million, or $0.18 per share, versus a net loss of $12.1 million, or $0.28 per share in the year ago period. The year over year decrease in net loss is largely attributable to a decrease in general and administrative expenses.

Research and development expenses were $7.5 million for each of the three months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025.

General and administrative expenses were $2.4 million for the three months ended July 31, 2026, compared to $5.5 million in the year ago period. The year over year decrease relates to a decrease in payroll, stock-based compensation expense and professional fees.

Rafael Holdings, Inc. Full Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results

For the twelve months ended July 31, 2026, we recorded a net loss attributable to Rafael Holdings of $29.6 million, or $0.58 per share, versus a net loss of $30.5 million, or $1.04 per share in the year ago period. The year over year decrease in net loss reflects a $4.4 million gain on Cornerstone’s settlements of accounts payable and convertible notes payable and the absence of prior-year unrealized losses on our investment in Cyclo, partially offset by higher research and development expenses following the consolidation of Cyclo Therapeutics in March 2025.

Research and development expenses were $24.3 million for the twelve months ended July 31, 2026, compared to $12.8 million in the year ago period. The year over year increase was primarily attributable to a $13.4 million increase in Cyclo’s research and development expenses in fiscal 2026, as well as an increase in R&D stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million, offset by decreases in R&D payroll of $1.5 million, and in clinical trial and other expenses of $0.8 million.

General and administrative expenses were $9.7 million for the twelve months ended July 31, 2026, compared to $13.8 million in the year ago period. The decrease of $4.1 million versus the prior year is primarily attributable to decreases in professional fees of $1.3 million, primarily due to merger-related costs in the prior year, stock-based compensation expense of $1.2 million, payroll expense of $0.6 million due to terminations, and other expenses.

Unify full-funnel strategies—from CTV reach to digital conversions—in one platform with AI-powered workflows, greater transparency, and open MCP integrations

NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Teads (NASDAQ: TEAD), the omnichannel outcomes platform, today announced the launch of the next generation of Teads Ad Manager (TAM), its unified, end-to-end advertising platform. The platform evolution is designed to help agencies and advertisers connect campaigns across connected TV (CTV) and digital environments, understand campaign impact across the funnel, extend performance across quality media placements, and work more efficiently through AI-assisted workflows.

As daily media consumption reaches an all-time high of 13 hours and 26 minutes per day, and streaming accounts for the majority of television viewership, consumer journeys have become increasingly cross-screen. Despite this shift, media planning, buying, and reporting remain heavily fragmented across disconnected tools, with 53% of marketers struggling to unify measurement across channels for optimization. The latest evolution of TAM solves this by uniting Teads’ premium global supply across CTV and digital with full-funnel measurement and AI workflows. TAM users can seamlessly connect media investments across screens, measure total campaign impact, and work smarter using their preferred AI tools.

“Marketing teams and agencies can no longer afford to manage brand and performance in isolated silos if they want to drive real business growth,” said Remi Cackel, Chief Product Officer at Teads. “By connecting the omnichannel journey in one platform and enabling AI-powered workflows, we’re giving our partners the control, efficiency, and intelligence needed to make every media investment deliver measurable impact.”

“Agencies require technology that simplifies media execution without compromising supply quality or data flexibility,” said Rheece Hemmings, Programmatic Manager at OMD, UK. “TAM’s connected toolset and open AI architecture allow our teams to plan, activate, and optimize cross-screen campaigns in minutes, giving us full visibility into how branding and performance work together to drive client growth.”

Key Platform Innovations
The next evolution of TAM introduces four key platform capabilities:

  • Omnichannel Strategies & Full-Funnel Measurement: Activate campaigns against multiple KPIs across CTV and digital within a single workflow and measure how upper-funnel brand activity drives lower-funnel outcomes—like tracking site visits generated by branding campaigns.
  • Unified Performance: Extend performance campaigns seamlessly across CTV and digital—including CTV InStream, HomeScreen, inRead, and Feed placements. Access premium, transparent media supply with built-in quality controls and flexible measurement integrations, including Conversion API (CAPI) and Google Analytics 4 (GA4).
  • Agentic AI Workflows: Automate campaign planning, setup, management, and reporting with task-specific AI copilots. Go from brief to strategy with Strategy Builder or catch delivery and pacing risks instantly in Control Hub—slashing troubleshooting time from 15 minutes to under 60 seconds.1
  • Open Model Context Protocol (MCP) Interconnectivity: Connect Teads’ audience insights, reach forecasting, and inventory discovery directly into agency AI systems, including Claude, Gemini Enterprise, and Microsoft Copilot, through open, secure MCP integrations.

“MCP is really a game changer because it gives us exactly what we need from discovery through to campaign creation,” said Nami Hamidi, Head of Precision at Havas Media Network Italy. “It combines different data sources with TAM’s knowledge and data to help create the best strategy and media plan, with recommendations on audiences, websites, context and creatives, as well as estimates for CPMs and CTRs.”

Teads is also expanding its Teads Ad Manager Certified Agency Program. This global platform accreditation program provides agency teams with structured training in omnichannel media, performance advertising, and strategic planning. Certified partners gain priority beta access and industry recognition for their platform expertise.

Availability
Unified Performance capabilities are generally available to global enterprise clients today. Full-Funnel Measurement, Strategy Builder, Control Hub, and MCP integrations are currently available in closed beta to TAMbassadors, with broader global access planned through the end of 2026.

Study Reports Immediate Pain Freedom in 14 of 15 Patients; all Patients Achieved Favorable Pain Outcomes at a Mean Six-Month Follow-Up

Multi-Contact Probe Technology Enabled Mapping and Treatment of Trigeminal Nerve Distributions without Repeated Probe Repositioning

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NMTC) (“NeuroOne” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on the surgical diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders, today announced the publication of initial clinical results evaluating its OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System in the peer-reviewed journal Pain Management.

The article, “OneRF radiofrequency ablation system for the minimally invasive treatment of trigeminal neuralgia: initial clinical experience,” was published online in October 2026. Authored by Michael D. Staudt, Theresa A. Elder, Marshall T. Holland and David P. Darrow, the retrospective study evaluated 15 patients with medically refractory trigeminal neuralgia treated during the system’s limited market release.

Trigeminal neuralgia causes sudden, severe, electric shock–like facial pain that can interfere with eating, speaking, and other daily activities. For patients whose pain cannot be adequately controlled with medication, percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of the trigeminal nerve offers a minimally invasive treatment option.

Conventional radiofrequency systems typically use a single active tip that must be repositioned to map and treat different trigeminal nerve distributions. OneRF’s thin-film, multi-contact probe allows physicians to perform multiple contact-level mapping and lesioning along a single fixed trajectory without repositioning. The lack of needing to reposition the probe may allow for reduced procedure times, lower number of anesthesia cycles and, most importantly, less discomfort for the patient during the procedure.

Key findings from the published study include*:

  • Immediate pain freedom in 93.3% of patients: Fourteen of fifteen patients were pain-free immediately after treatment. The remaining patient experienced partial initial relief and became pain-free approximately one week later.
  • Favorable outcomes at follow-up: All 15 patients achieved a good clinical outcome, defined as a Barrow Neurological Institute pain score of I–IIIB, at a mean follow-up of six months.
  • Pain freedom without medication: Eight patients, or 53.3%, were pain-free and taking no pain medication at their last follow-up. Six additional patients were pain-free while continuing medication; one had residual pain controlled with medication.
  • Mapping and treatment along a fixed trajectory: Contact-level mapping was achieved in every case, and no patient required probe repositioning to map and treat multiple trigeminal distributions.
  • No observed off-target lesioning: The authors reported no off-target lesioning, ophthalmic complications, or anesthesia dolorosa.
  • Complications: One patient developed a cheek hematoma during needle insertion and repositioning, which was treated with ice and resolved after 1 week; this same patient also developed transient masseter weakness.

“Treating trigeminal neuralgia requires careful localization of the nerve distributions responsible for each patient’s pain,” said Michael D. Staudt, MD, lead author of the publication. “In this initial series, the multi-contact probe allowed us to map and treat those distributions along a single fixed trajectory. The early pain outcomes are encouraging, and longer follow-up will help us understand the durability of relief.”

Dave Rosa, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeuroOne, added, “This publication adds peer-reviewed clinical evidence to our experience with OneRF for trigeminal neuralgia. We are encouraged by the pain relief reported in this initial cohort and by the ability to map and treat multiple nerve distributions without repeated probe repositioning. These findings support continued adoption of the platform and its potential to simplify the treatment workflow.”

The authors emphasized that this was a small, retrospective series without a direct comparison group. Larger studies and longer follow-up are needed to establish long-term durability, comparative effectiveness, and the contribution of contact-specific mapping to patient outcomes.

The publication is available at: https://doi.org/10.1080/17581869.2026.2748288.

About the OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System

The OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System leverages NeuroOne’s proprietary radiofrequency ablation technology and features a multi-contact probe designed to enable stimulation, mapping and ablation during trigeminal neuralgia procedures. The system is designed to streamline procedural workflow by potentially reducing the number of probe repositioning and anesthesia cycles while providing physicians with temperature-monitored radiofrequency ablation.

The NeuroOne OneRF® Trigeminal Nerve Ablation System is indicated for use in procedures to create radiofrequency lesions for the treatment of pain, or for lesioning nerve tissue for functional neurosurgical procedures.
