Sensory and motor electrophysiological mapping of the cerebellum in humans [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 Abstract Damage to the cerebellum during posterior fossa surgery can lead to ataxia and in paediatric cases, the risk of cerebellar mutism syndrome. Animal electrophysiological and human imaging studies have shown compartmentalisation of sensorimotor and cognitive functions within the cerebellum.

Minimum-Norm Estimation of TMS-Activated Motor Cortical Sites in Realistic Head and Brain Geometry
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022 Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is a widely used tool for motor cortex mapping. However, the full details of the activated cortical area during the mapping remain unknown due to the spread of the stimulating electric field (E-field ...

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017 Cortical stimulation mapping is a valuable tool to test the functional organization of the motor cortex in both basic neurophysiology (e.g., elucidating the process of motor plasticity) and clinical practice (e.g., before resecting brain tumors involving

Surgical Outcome of perirolandic Gliomas Resection using Pre and Intraoperative Brain Mapping Techniques. [PDF]
Zagazig University Medical Journal, 2023 BACKGROUND: Surgical removal of perirolandic glioma tumors aims at maximal tumor resection while preserving motor function. The potential benefit of resection using pre and intraoperative brain mapping techniques either under awake craniotomy or general ...

Mapping motor representations in the human cerebellum [PDF]
Brain, 2012 The cerebellum is a major motor structure. However, in humans, its efferent topographical organization remains controversial and indirectly inferred from neuroimaging and animal studies. Even central questions such as 'Can we evoke limb movements by stimulating the cerebellar cortex?' have no clear answer.

The Journal of Cell Biology, 2006 When the protein dynein was discovered to provide the flagellar bending force to axonemal microtubules (MTs) (Gibbons, 1963), “people had jumped to the reasonable hypothesis that dynein was perhaps also involved in other microtubule movements,” recalls Richard Vallee (Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY).

Finger extensor variability in TMS parameters among chronic stroke patients
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2005 Background This study determined the reliability of topographic motor cortical maps and MEP characteristics in the extensor digitorum communis (EDC) evoked by single-pulse TMS among patients with chronic stroke.

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2022 While magnetoencephalography (MEG) has proven to be a valuable and reliable tool for presurgical functional mapping of eloquent cortices for at least two decades, widespread use of this technique by clinicians has remained elusive.
