Central Pain Syndrome (CPS) is a neurological condition caused by damage specifically to the central nervous system
brain, brainstem, or spinal cord. This is the only up-to-date book available on the clinical aspects (including diagnosis and therapy) of CPS management. The authors have developed a complete reference source on central pain, which includes background material, the pathophysiology of the syndrome, and diagnostic and therapeutic information. The syndrome has been a medical mystery for 100 years with no effective cure; this book turns the concept of incurability of central pain on its head, providing a rational approach to therapy based on a scientific theory.
