Sentence examples for motor imagery compared from inspiring English sources

This study tested the hypothesis that patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) would show increased cortical activation during motor imagery compared to healthy controls, as seen in studies of motor execution.

This trial evaluated the clinical benefit of mental practice with motor imagery compared to these two control conditions.

Classification accuracy was also enhanced considerably in all participants after motor imagery training, compared to the accuracy before training.

Based on previous research we expected an attenuation of the late CNV during preparation for motor imagery as compared to motor execution.

In this earlier work, we combined physical and mental practice and found that the enhanced performance in the experimental motor imagery group, compared with the group that engaged in physical but not mental practice of this task, was limited to the actual trained task, and was not associated with a more generalized recovery.

The human primary sensorimotor cortex was investigated for somatotopic organization during motor imagery (IM) which was compared to motor execution (EM).

However, motor imagery effects were considered relatively small compared with that of ankle exercise because the effect of motor imagery is short-lived [ 24].

In the ROI, the right hand motor imagery elicits more significant ERD at C3 compared to the left hand motor imagery, which leads to BP ~ C 3 L > BP ~ C 3 R , while left hand motor imagery generates more significant ERD at C4 compared to the right hand motor imagery, so we have BP ~ C 4 L ω ∗, τ ∗ < BP ~ C 4 R ω ∗, τ ∗.

Bovend'Eerdt et al. (2010) published the findings of a randomized controlled trial involving 15 (mostly stroke) patients planned to receive motor imagery training embedded in usual physical therapy, compared to 15 patients receiving standard therapy only.

Lotze et al. reported greater overall activation in the primary contralateral sensorimotor cortices in a sample of 14 amputees during phantom hand movement compared with healthy controls during motor imagery task performance.

However, compared with studies of the neural mechanism underlying motor imagery, neuroimaging examinations of motor imagery training are comparatively few.
