Mechanisms of endogenous pain modulation illustrated by placebo analgesia : functional imaging findings

Nociceptive information processing and related pain perception are subject to substantial pro- and antinociceptive modulation. Research on the involved circuitry and the implemented mechanisms is a major focus of contemporary neuroscientific studies in the field of pain and will provide new insights...
