Published in 2023 at "Brain Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/brainsci13050776

Abstract: The rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) is a brainstem structure critical for the descending pain modulation system involved in both pain facilitation and inhibition through its projection to the spinal cord. Since the RVM is well… read more here.
