Changes of Magnetoencephalography during Stretching and Flexing Forefinger under Optical Instructions in One Hemiplegic Patient before and after Rehabilitation Training / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To observe the changes of magnetoencephalography (MEG) during stretching and flexing forefinger in one hemiplegic patient before and after rehabilitation training.MethodsThe cerebral electromagnetic wave of one hemiplegic patient during stretching and flexing both forefingers was recorded by MEG and superposed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to form magnetic source imaging (MSI). The changes of MEG before and after rehabilitation training were analyzed.ResultsThere was no movement evoking magnetic fields in right hemisphere motor cortex at two MSI detections, but detected in left hemisphere motor cortex. The latent period of the first and the second detection was -34.2 ms and -61.7 ms respectively. The exiting motor cortex was located in precentral gyrus. The exiting motor cortex at the second detection was located more front medial and low than at the first detection. The volume of the exiting motor cortex (9569.6 m3) at the second detection was more larger than the first detection (2309.7 m3). There was no movement evoking somatosensory magnetic fields in right hemisphere motor cortex at first MSI detection, but found at the second detection, the latent period was 91.1 ms, and the exiting cortex was located in postcentral gyrus.ConclusionThe cortex somatosensory function of patient with stroke recovers early than the motor function and the uninjured hemisphere function can improve obviously after rehabilitation training.
