Perception and Multisensory Integration in Neurological Patients Using fMRI
Not Applicable
- Conditions
- Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating PolyradiculoneuropathyMyasthenia GravisStrokeAnosognosiaAsomatognosia
- Interventions
- Device: Siemens magnetom avanto1.5 Tesla, Siemens magnetom trio A Tim system 3 Tesla
- Registration Number
- NCT01469858
- Lead Sponsor
- Hadassah Medical Organization
- Brief Summary
The main objective of the study is to explore and map brain areas involved in sensory perception and multisensory integration in patients with central or peripheral neurological damage. The investigators hypothesize for example, that a change (compare to healthy subjects) in the perceptual maps and body representation could be detected and characterize in patients suffering from impairments of peripheral nerve conduction.
