Abstract

In this article, I review the concept of personalized pain management and consider how brain imaging and quantitative sensory testing can be used to derive biomarkers of chronic pain treatment outcome. I review how different modalities of brain imaging can be used to acquire information about brain structure and function and how this information can be linked to individual measures of pain.
