Abstract
#Clinicians and researchers have the problem of objectively assessing
the intensity and characteristics of pain. Furthermore, the widespread
use of Visual-Analogue scales during the past decade highlights the need
for a reliable and quantitative biological marker of pain. Mono- and
#multidimensional measures \of pain, based on the activity of one or more
brain regions involved in the quantification of #painful inputs, have
become the focus of extensive research. The growing availability of
non-invasive functional imaging has in fact fueled a revolution in the
field: a novel #multiparametric pain signature was recently introduced
and tested in patients, and proven effective in evaluating the intensity
of painful inputs, and the effects of analgesics on those stimuli.
