Previous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have shown that brain responses to nociceptive pain, non‐nociceptive somatosensory, visual, and auditory stimuli are extremely similar. Actually, perception of external sensory stimulation requires complex interactions among distributed c...
