Event-Related Functional MRI Study on Central Representation of Acute Muscle Pain Induced by Electrical Stimulation
The aims of the study were to establish the pain matrix for muscle pain in the full head volume and to explore the possibility of a functional segregation to nonpainful and painful stimuli within the area of the parasylvian cortex corresponding to the secondary somatosensory area.
