[Abstract] Tension-type headache (TTH) is the most common type headache of primary headache with high incidence and prevalence. Although its effects are widespread, the exact pathogenesis of TTH is still unclear. The multimodal MRI technique has been widely used in the field of neuropsychiatric diseases due to its advantages of no radiation, easy operation, repeatable examination, high image resolution, and relatively simple experimental design. This paper reviews the progress of multimodal MRI in the study of TTH brain structure and function in the most recent years.
