Stroke recovery and its imaging.
Functional imaging of stroke recovery is a unique source of information that might be useful in the development of restorative treatments. Several features of brain function change spontaneously after stroke. Current studies define many of the most common events. Key challenges for the future are to develop standardized approaches to help address certain questions, determine the psychometric qualities of these measures, and define the clinical usefulness of these methods.
