28. Modulation of cerebral sensorimotor circuits during botulinum toxin treatment of cervical dystonia

Discussions: Within the context of previously described sensorimotor network hypoactivation during motor task performance in CD, our observed effect of no significant change in sensorimotor cortex activation would suggest the hypothesis that robust central changes develop after long-term regular BoNT-A treatment, although even the first BoNT-A application is clinically effective.Acknowledgment: Research supported by Grant IGA MH CR NT13575.
