International audienceTo investigate cerebral activity associated with allodynia in patients with neuropathic pain. Methods: The brain responses of 27 patients with peripheral (5), spinal (3), brainstem (4), thalamic (5), lenticular (5), or cortical (5) lesions were studied with fMRI as innocuous mechanical stimuli were addressed to either the allodynic territory or the homologous contralateral region. Results: When applied to the normal side, brush and cold rubbing stimuli did not evoke pain and activated a somatosensory "control" network including contralateral primary (SI) and secondary (SII) somatosensory cortices and insular regions. The same stimuli became severely painful when applied to the allodynic side and activated regions in th...
