Figure 3

Cortical reorganization and maladaptive plasticity in patients with CRPS. Panel (A): The distance between the peak response over the contralateral somatosensory cortex to stimulation of the first digit (D1) and fifth digit (D5) on the affected and healthy hands in a patient with CRPS. Note that the distance between D1 and D5 is less for the affected limb. Panel (B): Normalisation of primary sensory cortex reorgnisation occurs in association with the resolution of CRPS symptoms.
