Yin, H. et al. Combined MR spectroscopic imaging and diffusion tensor MRI visualizes corticospinal tract degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. J. Neurol. 251 , 1249–1254 (2004).

For example, monkeys and humans subjected to spinal cord hemisection lesions that remove the lateral half of the spinal cord, including all corticospinal projections of that side, typically ...

The corticospinal tract (CST) is the most important motor system in humans, yet robust regeneration of this projection after spinal cord injury (SCI) has not been accomplished. In murine models of SCI ...

Diffusion tensor MRI assesses corticospinal tract damage in ALS. Neurology. 1999 Sep 22;53(5):1051-8. PubMed. Cosottini M, Giannelli M, Siciliano G, Lazzarotti G, Michelassi MC, Del Corona A, ...

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 ...

Kaimeng Du et al. Pten Deletion Promotes Regrowth of Corticospinal Tract Axons 1 Year after Spinal Cord Injury. Journal of Neuroscience , July 2015 DOI: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.3637-14.2015 Cite This Page : ...

The Babinski reflex may show a problem in the corticospinal tract — or CST. ... whose work led to the identification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis — or ALS.

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 ...

In humans, the corticospinal tract extends from the cerebral cortex in the upper brain down into the spinal cord. "We humans use corticospinal axons for voluntary movement," said Tuszynski.

Background Previous studies have suggested that hamstring strain injury leads to activation and strength deficits in hamstring muscles. However, the effects of previous hamstring strain injury on 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.
