The Use of Resting State, fMRI and DTI in the Identification of Chronic Pain Conditions

Status unconfirmed

Conditions studied: Chronic Pain

In brief

Resting state fMRI scans of chronic pain sufferers will be compared to those of healthy normals and may be sufficiently different to allow a high level of classification accuracy of whether subjects have chronic pain. In addition, investigators will utilize DTI and a brief activation state using pain rumination to assess whether investigators can reliably find differences between chronic pain sufferers and healthy normals.
