DOI: 10.1002/ana.25371
Abstract: Phantom limb pain (PLP) is notoriously difficult to treat, partly due to an incomplete understanding of PLP‐related disease mechanisms. Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is used to modulate plasticity in various neuropathological diseases, including chronic pain.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2017.04.009
Abstract: Highlights • We present a neural network related to evoked phantom sensations in amputees.• Such networks were not related to the stimulation from the residual limb.• Difference in intra- and inter-hemispheric interactions between amputees and… read more here.
