Neuroimaging has played an important role in advancing our understanding of the neuropathology underlying headache. ASU-Mayo Center for Innovative Imaging faculty members Jorge Caviedes, Teresa Wu and Jing Li invite you to a lecture on the results of these studies. The results have demonstrated widespread changes in structure and function in patients with migraine and post-traumatic headache in a number of brain regions now commonly called the ‘pain-matrix.’
