Brain activity for rating spontaneous fluctuations of back pain in chronic back pain patients show a strong correlation with intensity and duration of the condition across all participating patients. The observed correlations are strong enough that we can assert that the task can be used to predict intensity and duration of chronic back pain in individual subjects within an error of 20%.
