Neuroimaging study finds first evidence of neuroinflammation in brains of chronic pain patients.

A new study from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) researchers has found, for the first time, evidence of neuroinflammation in key regions of the brains of patients with chronic pain. By showing that levels of an inflammation-linked protein are elevated in regions known to be involved in the transmission of pain, the study published in the journal Brain paves the way for the exploration of potential … Continue reading Neuroimaging study finds first evidence of neuroinflammation in brains of chronic pain patients.
