The Influence of Pressure Pain on [11C]Diprenorphine Binding Potentials
The Influence of Pressure Pain on [11C]Diprenorphine Binding Potentials

Healthy volunteers aged 21 to 50 are needed for a research study investigating whether pain will alter the binding properties of ([11C]diprenorphine), a molecule that can be used during brain imaging. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and functional Magnetic Resonance (fMRI) imaging will be used in this study.
