Abstract
⺠Subjects received a series of near-threshold pain stimuli while undergoing fMRI. ⺠We studied multivariate patterns of brain activity underlying pain perception. ⺠PAG, VLPFC, DLPFC, anterior insula, and OFC were highly predictive of pain. ⺠Yet the highest accuracies were afforded by combinations of these regions. ⺠This suggests that pain is encoded in a distributed network.
