Abstract-Vorschau
Aim: The serotoninergic system has been supposed to play a major role in migraine pathophysiology for decades. 80% of serotonergic neurons reside within the raphe nuclei in the brainstem. Positron emission tomgraphy (PET) studies on migraineurs show a marked increase of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in the mesopontine brainstem, a region which comprises the rostral raphe nuclei. We hypothesized the mesopontine…
