Lesions to primary sensory and posterior parietal cortices impair recovery from hand paresis after stroke.
BACKGROUND: Neuroanatomical determinants of motor skill recovery after stroke are still poorly understood. Although lesion load onto the corticospinal tract is known to affect recovery, less is known about the effect of lesions to cortical sensorimotor areas. Here, we test the hypothesis that lesion...
