A major question of CST guidance is how the corticospinal motor axons pathfind along the anterior-posterior direction in the postnatal spinal cord. The directional cue has remained unknown.

Corticospinal tract structure and excitability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A DTI and TMS study. NeuroImage: Clinical , 2020; 25: 102157 DOI: 10.1016/j.nicl.2019.102157 ...

Background Recent evidence has suggested that corticospinal excitability alterations are present in the surrounding ankle musculature in individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI). However, ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have found a way to stimulate the growth of axons, which may spell the dawn of a new beginning on chronic SCI treatments.

Lepley’s team looked at MRI brain scans of 10 patients who had ACL reconstructions. Part of the corticospinal tract — which sends messages between the brain and muscles — was atrophied.
