Alterations of functional connectivity of the motor cortex in Fabry disease: An RS-fMRI study

Conclusions:
An alteration of the corticostriatal pathway is present in FD, in line with the recently suggested subclinical involvement of motor circuits in this disease. These results shed new light on the pattern of cerebral involvement in FD.
