The prevalence and cost of chronic pain is a major physical and mental health care problem
in the United States today. As a result, there has been a recent explosion of research on …

The main objective of this study is to review and summarize recent findings on
electroencephalographic patterns in individuals with chronic pain. We also discuss recent …

Magnetoencephalography (MEG), with its direct view to the cortex through the magnetically
transparent skull, has developed from its conception in physics laboratories to a powerful …

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) records weak magnetic fields outside the human head
and thereby provides millisecond-accurate information about neuronal currents supporting …

Understanding another person's experience draws on “mirroring systems,” brain circuitries
shared by the subject's own actions/feelings and by similar states observed in others. Lately …

Objective: To assess cortical excitability changes in patients with chronic neuropathic pain at
baseline and after repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the motor cortex …

This study identifies massive axonal arbors of trigeminovascular (dura-sensitive) thalamic
neurons in multiple cortical areas and proposes a novel framework for conceptualizing …

The rolandic mu rhythm consists of two main frequency components: one around 10 Hz and
the other around 20 Hz. Reactivity of the mu rhythm, especially its motor cortex 20-Hz …

Chronic pain resulting from injury of the peripheral or central nervous system may be
associated with a significant dysfunction of extensive neural networks. Noninvasive …

Neural oscillations play an important role in the integration and segregation of brain regions
that are important for brain functions, including pain. Disturbances in oscillatory activity are …
