Corticospinal Tract and Related Grey Matter Morphometric Shape Analysis in ALS Phenotypes: A Fractal Dimension Study
A pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is corticospinal tract (CST) degeneration resulting in upper motor neuron (UMN) dysfunction. No quantitative test is available to easily assess UMN pathways. Brain neuroimaging in ALS promises to potentially change this through identifyi...
