DOI: 10.1016/j.sjpain.2017.04.022
Abstract: Abstract Aims The spatial alternation of innocuous cold and warm stimuli on the skin can paradoxically provoke a hot, burning sensation, known as the thermal-grill illusion (TGI). Whether the TGI depends on spinal or supraspinal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-24635-1
Abstract: Painful burning sensations can be elicited by a spatially-alternating pattern of warm and cold stimuli applied on the skin, the so called “Thermal Grill Illusion” (TGI). Here we investigated whether the TGI percept originates spinally… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/srep40007
Abstract: The ‘thermal grill illusion’ (TGI) is a unique cutaneous sensation of unpleasantness, induced through the application of interlacing warm and cool stimuli. While previous studies have investigated optimal parameters and subject characteristics to evoke the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002749
Abstract: ABSTRACT The thermal grill illusion of pain (TGIP) is a paradoxical burning pain sensation elicited by the simultaneous application of innocuous cutaneous warm and cold stimuli with a thermode ('thermal grill') consisting of interlaced heated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/psy.0000000000000824
Abstract: Using the thermal grill illusion and a predictive coding framework, this study shows that somatosensory perception can be increased by negative verbal instructions and that this effect is stronger in poorly versus clearly defined sensory… read more here.

Dynamics and Perception in the Thermal Grill Illusion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "IEEE Transactions on Haptics"
DOI: 10.1109/toh.2019.2904226
Abstract: A basic challenge in perception research is to understand how sensory inputs from physical environments and the body are integrated in order to facilitate perceptual inferences. Thermal perception, which arises through heat transfer between extrinsic… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Journal of Pain Research"
DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s403387
Abstract: Purpose This study aimed to use thermal grill illusion (TGI), an experimental model of pain processing and central mechanisms, to evaluate the perception of TGI-related sensations or pain in patients with chronic lower back pain… read more here.
