Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a cascade of neurodegenerative and compensatory changes across the neuroaxis. The majority of SCI patients develop neuropathic pain (NP) as a secondary complication. In this study, we applied source-based-morphometry to investigate remote microstructural changes sensitive to myelin and iron deposition in brain areas associated with pain processing and explored the associations of these microstructural changes with pain intensity.
