Using diagnostic imaging method, physiological processes in soft tissue pain such as chronic tennis elbow can be explored. This is demonstrated by researchers from Uppsala University and the results are now being published in the prestigious journal iPLOS ONE/i. The pain physician and researcher Magnus Peterson is presenting a new use of positron emission tomography (PET) and a tracer for the signal receptor NK1 for visualising a physiological process associated with pain. ...
