DosSantos M, Love T, Martikainen I, Nascimento T, Fregni F, Cummiford C, et al.
Front Psychiatry . 2012 Nov; 3:93. PMID: 23130002
We developed a unique protocol where transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the motor cortex is performed during positron emission tomography (PET) scan using a μ-opioid receptor (μOR) selective radiotracer,...

Neuroreport . 2007 Apr; 18(4):301-5. PMID: 17435592
Migraine has been traditionally considered a nonprogressive, paroxysmal disorder with no brain abnormalities between attacks. We used diffusion tensor imaging to examine interictal diffusion properties of the brains of migraineurs...
