Diffusion Tensor Imaging Biomarkers to Predict Motor Outcomes in Stroke: A Narrative Review

Diffusion Tensor Imaging Biomarkers to Predict Motor Outcomes in Stroke: A Narrative Review

Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Motor impairments occur in most of the patients with stroke in the acute phase and contribute substantially to disability. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) biomarkers such as fractional anisotropy (FA) measured at an early phase after stroke have emer...
