Motor system after neonatal arterial ischemic stroke: MRI studies

Publication date: September 2016 Source:Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, Volume 59, Supplement Author(s): Mickaël Dinomais Opinion/Feedback Long-term motor performances after unilateral neonatal stroke are variable. The presence of motor deficits may be related to structural characteristic (size and location) of the infarct site but also in brain area remote from this injury (cerebellum and thalamus). Analyzing in functional MRI and structural MRI the relationship between long-term motor performance and motor system after neonatal stroke could provide cerebral target for therapy.
