Combining diffusion tensor imaging and gray matter volumetry to investigate motor functioning in chronic stroke.

Motor impairment after stroke is related to the integrity of the corticospinal tract (CST). However, considerable variability in motor impairment remains unexplained. To increase the accuracy in evaluating long-term motor function after ischemic stroke, we tested the hypothesis that combining diffus...
