In this presentation, Dr. Okeson provides insight into the
human pain experience. Pain is far more than a simple
sensation and may not always be related to tissue injury. The
functional anatomy of the brain will be described and how
nociception is processed by the different brain and brainstem
areas. Key points will center on the influence of the pain
experience by factors such as anxiety, depression, emotional
stress, attention, past memories and learned behavior.
Viewers will also learn how basic human drives originating in
the brain limbic structures can be associated with addictive
behaviors.
