Progress in functional MRI of the mechanism of visual feedback training on motor function rehabilitation in SCI patients
Visual feedback training (VFT) has been widely applied in the rehabilitation of spinal cord injury (SCI) and other motor dysfunctional diseases,and has achieved good therapeutic effects. However,the neural mechanism of its effect on motor function remains unclear. With the development of functional MRI (fMRI),it has been found that VFT is related to changes in inter-and intra-network functional connectivity,as well as activation of sensory-motor cortex,which provides a theoretical basis for revealing the neural mechanism by which VFT affects motor rehabilitation. Therefore,this paper reviews the progress of fMRI research on the mechanism of VFT in motor function rehabilitation in patients with SCI,providing neuroimaging evidence for the clinical application of VFT in motor rehabilitation of SCI patients.
