Interhemispheric Structural Connectivity Underlies Motor Recovery after Stroke
Abstract
Although ample evidence highlights that the ipsilesional corticospinal tract (CST) plays a crucial role in motor recovery after stroke, studies on cortico‐cortical motor connections remain scarce and provide inconclusive results. Given their unique potential to serve as structural reserve enabling motor network reorganization, the question arises whether cortico‐cortical connections may facilitate motor control depending on CST damage.
