Investigation of the functional difference between the pathological itching and neuropathic pain-induced rat brain using manganese-enhanced MRI.

CONCLUSION: Our MEMRI investigation indicates functionally different activity of cerebral regions due to the effect of PI or NP. These findings provide clear information of the signal transduction in the brain regarding PI or NP that share a similar neuronal pathway. PMID: 26385912 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
