Increased Functional Activation of Limbic Brain Regions During Negative Emotional Processing in Migraine

Increased Functional Activation of Limbic Brain Regions During Negative Emotional Processing in Migraine

Pain is both an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience. This is highly relevant in migraine where cortical hyperexcitability in response to sensory stimuli (including pain, light and sound) has been extensively reported. However, migraine may feature a more general enhanced response to aversiv...
