Segmentation of neck muscles using ultrasound in cervical dystonia
Objective: Identify neck muscle boundaries using real-time ultrasound in cervical dystonia and relate imaging data to neck muscle structure and function. Background: Identification of individual…Neuropathology of dopa-responsive dystonia due to Tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency
Objective: To describe detailed neuropathology findings from an autopsy case of dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD) with genetically confirmed tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency (THD). Background: DRD comprises a…Prevelance,clinical pathology and Treatment of Dystonia in Pakistani Population
Objective: Evaluate the gender,mean age,clinical spectrum and non–motor symptoms of the disease in Pakistan,a developing country of South East Asia. Background: Dystonia,a neurological syndrome,is characterized…Mirror dysonia in writer`s aramp: a study with advanced multi-channel micro-electrode recording EMG system
Objective: To differentiate between those with concordant(C) and discordant (D) MMs in WC, in order to establish that there is a quantifiable difference between these…Correlation Between Time Course, Level of Impact of Illness, Functionality, and Postural Measures of Patients with Cervical Dystonia.
Objective: To correlate the evolution over time, level of impact of illness, functionality and posture of head and trunk in the coronal plane of patients…Severe striatal and pallidal atrophy in early disease stages of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism
Objective: To investigate cortical and subcortical atrophy patterns in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP). Background: XDP is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by severe adult-onset dystonia followed by…Striatal and pedunculopontine nucleus diffusion tensor imaging in cervical dystonia
Objective: To characterize white matter integrity in the striatum and pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) in patients with cervical dystonia using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Background: The…Phenomenology of idiopathic adult-onset truncal dystonia
Objective: Characterize the phenomenology and natural history of adult onset idiopathic truncal dystonia. Background: Focal dystonias are the most common type of adult-onset dystonia, however,…Electromyographic and kinematic patterns in runner’s dystonia
Objective: To review electromyographic and kinematic patterns in patients with runner's dystonia (RD). Background: RD is a task-specific focal limb dystonia, preferentially involving the lower…Real-time ultrasound for automated analysis and visualization of neck muscles in cervical dystonia
Objective: To demonstrate an automated ultrasound-based method for real-time visualization of neck muscles in cervical dystonia. Background: Understanding of the pattern and extent of muscle…
