Accurate segmentation of chronic stroke lesions from mono-spectral magnetic resonance imaging scans (e.g., T1-weighted images) is a difficult task due to the arbitrary shape, complex texture, variable size and intensities, and varied locations of the...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the effects of virtual reality (VR)-based robot therapy combined with task-oriented therapy on cerebral cortex activation and upper limb function in patients with stroke.
