Cortical function in progressive lower motor neuron disorders and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a comparative PET study.
OBJECTIVE: To compare cortical function at rest and during limb movement in patients with progressive lower motor neuron degeneration (LMND) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). METHODS: PET was used to measure regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in five patients with progressive LMND, six patie...
