Neuroanatomical correlates of poststroke complex regional pain syndrome: a voxel-based lesion symptom-mapping study

Abstract Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a common poststroke complication. However, the neural substrates associated with CRPS remain unclear. We investigated the neural correlates associated with poststroke CRPS using voxel-based lesion‒symptom mapping (VLSM) analysis. Among 145 patients w...
