Relationship between Corticospinal Excitability While Gazing at the Mirror and Motor Imagery Ability
Mirror therapy (MT) helps stroke survivors recover motor function. Previous studies have reported that an individual’s motor imagery ability is related to the areas of brain activity during motor imagery and the effectiveness of motor imagery training ...

A Brazilian-Portuguese version of the Kinesthetic and Visual Motor Imagery Questionnaire [PDF]
ABSTRACT Motor imagery has emerged as a potential rehabilitation tool in stroke. The goals of this study were: 1) to develop a translated and culturally-adapted Brazilian-Portugese version of the Kinesthetic and Visual Motor Imagery Questionnaire (KVIQ20-P); 2) to evaluate the psychometric characteristics of the scale in a group of patients with stroke

EEG changes during sequences of visual and kinesthetic motor imagery [PDF]
The evoked cerebral electric response when sequences of complex motor imagery (MI) task are executed several times is still unclear. This work aims at investigating the existence of habituation in the cortical response, more specifically in the alpha band peak of parietal and occipital areas (10-20 international system electroencephalogram, EEG ...

Neural activation and functional connectivity during motor imagery of bimanual everyday actions [PDF]
Bimanual actions impose intermanual coordination demands not present during unimanual actions. We investigated the functional neuroanatomical correlates of these coordination demands in motor imagery (MI) of everyday actions using functional magnetic ...

Electrocorticographic dynamics predict visually guided motor imagery of grasp shaping [PDF]
Identification of intended movement type and movement phase of hand grasp shaping are critical features for the control of volitional neuroprosthetics. We demonstrate that neural dynamics during visually-guided imagined grasp shaping can encode intended movement.
