Methods in Pain Research (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780849300356)

Addressing a rapidly growing area of neuroscience, Methods in Pain Research is a single volume survey of the methods used to study a reaction or 'sensory report' in humans that can only be inferred by indirect means in animal or tissues studies. It contains source material, useful advice, and guidance to specific details as well as examples of current usage. The book examines techniques used in studying pain, including gene linkage, brain imaging methods, the use of transgenic rodent models, painful sensory neuropathy models, and more. The material also covers conventional methods of pain study, such as anatomical and electophysiological techniques. It is a guide to the strategies of experimental design.
