Examples in Context
- Arthritis pain also prompted heightened activation of the prefrontal cortex and the inferior posterior parietal cortex, areas of the brain instrumental in the supervision of attention.
- During the good hand movement, the contralateral sensorimotor cortex and posterior parietal cortex and ipsilateral assistive movement area were activated, which were not observed in the ipsilateral side.
- The activated brain regions include the primary motor cortex, right posterior parietal cortex, bilateral cerebellum, and some regions in the prefrontal cortex.
- The results of fMRI : Contralateral sensorimotor cortexes were weakly activated in 7 stroke patients during the affected hand movement, and obviously activated in ipsilateral posterior parietal cortex.
- Results : Bilateral anterior premotor cortex ( PMC ) and posterior aspects of posterior parietal cortex ( PPC ) were primarily activated during the preparation period.
