Currently, direct electrical stimulation (DES) is the only technique that allows direct mapping of white matter tracts in vivo in humans. Axonal DES has provided new insights into the functional ...

Cell Death & Disease - Suppression of SHP-1 promotes corticospinal tract sprouting and functional recovery after brain injury Skip to main content Thank you for visiting nature.com.

All 17 patients who received bone marrow cells following a stroke showed improvements in the corticospinal tract on brain scans 12 months later, the researchers said.

The corticospinal tract is known to be a major neural tract for motor function in the human brain. Several studies have reported on injury of the corticospinal tract by transtentorial herniation.

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 ...
