Abstract
A few studies have investigated CTh in patients with migraine showing highly variable and inconsistent results. The relatively small sample sizes of the previous studies and unbalanced study groups may partially explain these inconsistencies.

A few studies have investigated cortical thickness (CTh) in patients with migraine showing highly variable and inconsistent results
High-resolution T1-weighted isotropic 3D MRI data acquired at 3 Tesla in 131 patients with migraine (92 patients without aura, 39 with aura; 31±9 years old; 109 women; monthly attack frequency: 3.2± 2.5; disease duration: 14±8.4 years) and 115 matched healthy subjects (29±7 years old; 81 women) were collected from 4 different centers (5 different scanners)
The areas where we observed reductions of cortical thickness belong to somatosensory, pain and visual networks, all previously implicated in migraine pathophysiology
