Reward-predictive neural responses have also been observed in a variety of cortical areas, including prefrontal cortex Variability and delay In general, candidate actions might differ according to the expected magnitude, probability or delay to rewarding outcomes, and all of these factors might

imaging studies using fMRI with high field strengths, as well as rare studies of human patients with chronically implanted depth electrodes for monitoring seizures Of equal importance, lesion studies of the amygdala are too microscopic in that it is important to consider the amygdala as one component

) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), provided new insights into the central processing of painful stimuli. For instance, these studies have shown that cortical processing of visceral pain may differ from somatic pain as processing of visceral sensations has been localized in the secondary

This is the first report to demonstrate involvement of the prefrontal cortex in the qEEG response to a natural putative D2 agonist, especially evident in dopamine D2 A1 allele subjects in agreement with NIDA
