Intracortical inhibition is modulated by phase of prosthetic rehabilitation in transtibial amputees

Reorganisation of primary motor cortex (M1) is well described in long-term lower limb amputees. In contrast cortical reorganisation during the rehabilitation period after amputation is poorly understood. Thirteen transtibial amputees and thirteen gender matched control participants of similar age we...
