New functional imaging techniques like PET, TMS, and fMRI noninvasively study migraine's haemodynamic and metabolic changes. This review covers recent findings on aura and headache phases, relating them to migraine pathophysiology theories.

Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Medical Imaging
Neurology

Background:

Migraine pathophysiology is complex and not fully understood.
Functional imaging offers new noninvasive tools to study brain activity during migraine.

Purpose of the Study:

To review recent functional imaging studies in human migraine.
To discuss how these findings relate to current migraine theories.

Main Methods:

Positron emission tomography (PET)
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

Main Results:

These techniques are being applied to study both migraine aura and headache phases.
