Summary

While some indications of the neural circuits involved in the Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM) process are now available, there is still need to clarify what parts of the brain are essential for this process, whether the spino-brainstem loop is largely sufficient to explain CPM or whether other cerebral and spinal regions such as frontal, somatosensory and other cortical regions contribute substantially. Whereas mere observation of correlation between these circuits while activated by brain imaging is still of considerable interest, direct experimental manipulations by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could even establish insights into causal relationships.
