Pain Imaging Lab

We've created a new medical imaging method to pinpoint the exact location of pain generation for better #painmanagement of those suffering from #chronicpain.

Hello Twitter! Curious about how we image pain and help patients in pain?

Pain Imaging work is featured on @SNM_MI TV 🤓#SNMMI2021 Check out video of our effort to pinpoint pain generators using PET/MRI, and see some of team: @ccurtinprs, Bin Shen, Guido Davidzon, Daehyun Yoon, Dawn Holley. 5 min version at https://t.co/NJK6fMIyrJ. 1 min version here:

SUPER THRILLED😃our image made the final cut for Minnie's Best Radiology Image. Huge thank you🙏 to @AuntMinnie and all supporters for increasing awareness of a new way to pinpoint pain generators and help those in pain https://t.co/bXapWZb1BW #PETMR #radiology #chronicpain #CPP

Thank you Professor Curtin for being an incredible physician and colleague!

@Biswal_Lab @PainNewsNetwork This work is so exciting. These images have opened up new ideas and possibilities for our most challenging pain patients. The images are beautiful and so informative #pain

@DEEGILES0410 @PainNewsNetwork @StanfordMed Hoping the trend continues and that we show convincingly that we minimize unnecessary or unhelpful surgeries, minimize hospital visits, help decide the use of systemic vs local therapies or help develop/promote more efficacious or alternative therapies.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

@DEEGILES0410 @PainNewsNetwork @StanfordMed In our relatively brief experience, the referring physicians who send their patients for this clinical trial are finding it helpful and use the data to help make management decisions that have significantly helped a subset of patients thus far.

@TawfikLab Thank you, Dr. Tawfik, for your incredible collaboration and referring patients for this study! 🤓Partners like you inspire us in our mission to help those suffering from chronic pain.💪🏾

@Heather17322811 @bodyrights @PainNewsNetwork @BNightsCRPS @StanfordMed Thank you for sharing your experience. I am really sorry to learn of your pain. If you are interested how we might be able to help get some relief or learn more about what we do, please feel free to DM me.

@life_is_art___ @PainNewsNetwork @StanfordMed Thank you for your comment. As a Radiologist, I have seen how MRIs in particular have been misleading and even detrimental to those suffering from chronic pain. I am hopeful this PET/MRI technique will get us closer to an accurate representation of one's pain.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

@Heather17322811 @bodyrights @PainNewsNetwork @BNightsCRPS @StanfordMed This approach uses PET and MRI to image pain generators. The PET is much more sensitive than MRI, and PET is finding things which are invisible to MRI. This is why we are hopeful we may be able to now help those who had unhelpful MRIs.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

@AngieSanchezss @PainNewsNetwork @StanfordMed Understand your frustration. I can only hope the tech we are building will improve the lives of chronic pain patients. I also hope patient experiences and advocacy groups will push insurance companies to reimburse this procedure.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

@NickCarlin6 @PainNewsNetwork @StanfordMed Understand your feelings regarding imaging. I agree that you can't rely solely on imaging. We are looking at pain-relevant molecules with this tech and I'm hopeful this will be better than what's out there.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

Thank you @PainNewsNetwork for highlighting our work! Still in the early stages but very hopeful this approach can help those suffering from #chronicpain

[Pain News Network @PainNewsNetwork]

A new approach to #imaging -- that combines the use of #PET and #MRI scans -- can identify the causes of #chronicpain with much more precision than conventional imaging. #cpp @StanfordMed

7 days of #mylifeinpictures: Day 6/7. Today needs words of solidarity, today is about people. I challenge us all to obliterate hate. Stand with our Black neighbours, friends and colleagues. Stand against violence and cruelty. Today I nominate us all to make the difference.

[Pain Imaging Lab @Biswal_Lab]

7 days of #mylifeinpictures: Day 1/7. No words, no people and challenge a new person everyday. Thanks
@GambhirLab
for the nomination! Today I nominate @juliesut8

@douglakemd @NobelPrize @Twitter lol Thank you for the kind and supportive words, Doug! I’m hopeful this will help a number of people suffering in pain. And I hope you are doing well and are safe.
