DOI: 10.1002/mrm.29415
Abstract: The spinal cord contains sensorimotor neural circuits of scientific and clinical interest. However, spinal cord functional MRI (fMRI) is significantly more technically demanding than brain fMRI, due primarily to its proximity to the lungs. Accelerated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11682-019-00190-9
Abstract: The aim of this study was to explore whether there will be any alterations in sensorimotor-related cortex and the possible causes of sensorimotor dysfunction after incomplete cervical spinal cord injury (ICSCI). Structural and resting-state functional… read more here.
