Knee Osteoarthritis and Bone-Brain Pain Study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how knee pain signals travel from the bone to the brain, and it uses advanced imaging to understand this connection. If you have severe knee osteoarthritis and are about to have knee replacement surgery, you may be able to join and help researchers learn more about pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
