Structural integrity of the contralesional hemisphere predicts cognitive impairment in ischemic stroke at three months.
After stroke, white matter integrity can be affected both locally and distally to the primary lesion location. It has been shown that tract disruption in mirror's regions of the contralateral hemisphere is associated with degree of functional impairment. Fourteen patients suffering right hemisp...
