In surgery to remove brain tumors located close to the pyramidal tracts, the aim is to preserve motor function while removing as much of the tumor as possible. Motor function is best measured during ...

A new Georgetown University Medical Center study exploring a new brain imaging technique is bringing stroke experts a step closer to better tailoring rehabilitation. A new study by a global team of ...

After development of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT), which is derived from diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), three-dimensional reconstruction and estimation for three motor tracts, such as the ...

The brain exhibits limited capacity for spontaneous restoration of lost motor functions after stroke. Rehabilitation is the prevailing clinical approach to augment functional recovery, but the ...

The figure summarizes key findings from 101 glioma cases with corticospinal tract involvement, including resection extent, postoperative motor deficits, survival outcomes, and prognostic factors such ...

Researchers have successfully directed stem cell-derived neurons to regenerate lost tissue in damaged corticospinal tracts of rats, resulting in functional benefit, a new article reports. Writing in ...
