Summary

This study aims to find better ways to measure myofascial pain, a common type of muscle pain, using advanced imaging techniques like MRI and electrical sensors. Researchers will study 100 adults with neck or shoulder pain to see if these imaging tools can track how well treatments work and predict recovery. The goal is to develop objective, non-invasive methods to assess pain, which could lead to more personalized care.
