Bimanual Tandem Motor Task with Multiple Sclerosis in Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Effect of Physiotherapeutic Techniques - a Pilot Study

Abstract

The aim of the study was to find out whether there is a difference in the pattern of brain activation (PBA) examined by means of functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) during a motor task in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and healthy probands (HP); and if it is possible to influence clinical functions and PBA by means of neurorehabilitation (NRHB) and aerobic training (AT).
