Relevance of structural brain connectivity to learning and recovery from stroke

The physical structure of white matter fibre bundles constrains their function. Any behaviour that relies on transmission of signals along a particular pathway will therefore be influenced by the structural condition of that pathway. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging provides localised m...
