Effect of spinal anesthesia-induced deafferentation on pain processing in healthy male volunteers: A task-related fMRI study

Effect of spinal anesthesia-induced deafferentation on pain processing in healthy male volunteers: A task-related fMRI study

BackgroundSpinal anesthesia causes short-term deafferentation and alters the crosstalk among brain regions involved in pain perception and pain modulation. In the current study, we examined the effect of spinal anesthesia on pain response to noxious thermal stimuli in non-deafferented skin areas usi...
