For example, the DTI model displays relatively straight fibers of the pyramidal tract (PT) better than cross-fibers (Oouchi et al ... Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Diffusion Magnetic ...

The corticospinal tract axons descend in the dorsal, lateral, and ventral columns; most descend in the dorsal columns. Note that each hemisphere gives rise to dense contralateral and sparse ...

The presence or absence of a Babinski sign can be puzzling, but in the light of existing pathological studies it is more fruitful to consider which pyramidal tract fibres release it than whether they ...

A multidisciplinary research team in the Archaeology Zone in Chupacigarro, Peru, discovered an ancient pyramidal structure. Credit: Zona Arqueológica Caral/Peruvian Ministry of Culture. A ...

What is an MRI scan? MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging. The MRI scan uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create images (pictures) of tissues, organs and other structures inside ...

Researchers are launching a multi-site pilot study to assess whether a ketogenic diet, alongside standard medications, can stabilize mood symptoms in young people with bipolar disorder. The 16-week ...

Only one case was potentially related to a neurological condition: a compression of the anterolateral surface of the hypothalamus by the posterior cerebral artery discovered on a brain MRI.
