Fig 1 A schematic displaying the neurophysiological correlates of neural activity and techniques used to detect that particular signal. EEG, electroencephalography; MEG, magnetoencephalography; FDG-PET, flurodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography; H215O-PET, water based positron emission tomography; NIRS, near infrared spectroscopy; FMRI, functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Fig 4 Neuroanatomy of pain processing. Main brain regions that activate during a painful experience are highlighted as bilaterally active but with more dominant activation on the contralateral hemisphere (red).
