If the circuitry in the thalamus is interrupted or disrupted, even the in tractable pain of cancer may be allayed. The Ervin-Mark technique requires drilling holes in the skull (under a general anesthetic), then using elaborate stereoscopic instruments to place four electrodes at selected points in the brain, two of them in the thalamus itself. The electrodes are left in place and cause no pain in the insensitive brain. The little wounds where their connecting wires pass through...
