The research team compared structural MRI scans from 10 patients with poststroke thalamic pain and 10 pain-free control patients who had experienced a thalamic stroke >2 years previously.

What is a thalamic stroke? Learn about this type of stroke and its causes, symptoms, ... MRI. These tests can produce images of the inside of your body using radio waves and magnets.

Lacunar Infarction: (Left) Flair axial MRI; (Right) Diffusion-weighted MRI. Note the acute ischemic stroke seen in the diffusion-weighted image in the region of the right thalamus, which accounts for ...

Damage to brain tissue near the stroke lesion was not the primary cause of abnormal brain electrical activity. Instead, these abnormalities were related to the thalamus, a structure located deep ...

The study, titled "Secondary thalamic dysfunction underlies abnormal large-scale neural dynamics in chronic stroke," published recently in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of ...

"The thalamus could undergo several types of damage following stroke and we don't know if one type in particular, or a combination, produces the abnormal brain activity observed in this study.

Portable bedside MRI showed promise in detecting infarcts revealed on high-field MRI in those with acute ischemic stroke, with better performance on larger sized infarcts, according to a poster ...

Using functional MRI, Sergi will measure study participants’ brain activity as they perform the exercises, as well as shortly before and after. Sergi will look for neural reorganization, especially in ...
