The mechanisms of neuropathic pain include peripheral sensitization, central Sensitization and central disinhibition. In the past decade, several reviews have been written on the mechanisms of neuropathic pain, the contribution of neuropathy to pain presenting in primary care may be unrecognized. Unfortunately, neuropathic pain often responds poorly to standard pain treatments. Yet it is essential that clinicians understand the Neuropathic Pain S.M.A.R.T Management,because such an understanding can steer future research and guide clinical practice.The paper is to introduce our clinical study that is use functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the acupuncture inhibition of neuropathic pain.30 volunteers participated in the experiment that include 10 healthy volunteers. 20 cases of neuropathic pain after ischemic stroke Participants were randomly assigned to receive acupuncture group or sham acupuncture group followed by at least 2 weeks. Functional and structural images were acquired on a 3T Siemens Trio scanner and we were specifically interested in the effect of acupuncture on the thalamus. Functional connectivity between the thalamus and the whole brain was calculated to determine changes in pain-related functional. We observed significantly decreased BOLD responses in several areas typically. These areas included the precentral gyrus, insular cortex, amygdala, and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). Under acupuncture, the thalamus showed enhanced functional coupling with the precentral gyrus, insular cortex, amygdala, and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) (P&lt;0.05),when compared to sham acupuncture. This suggests that the effect of acupuncture inhibition of neuropathic pain is how the presence of changes functional connectivity between the thalamus and other brain areas of the somatosensory.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Keywords</strong>:Acupuncture; Neuropathic Pain S.M.A.R.T Management;Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging;</p><p><br/></p>
