Pneumatically driven finger movement: a novel passive functional MR imaging technique for presurgical motor and sensory mapping.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2013; (1): E5-7
Two of the most common reasons for failure to obtain adequate preoperative functional data are inadequate task performance and excessive head motion. With an MR imaging-compatible pneumatically driven manipulandum, passive motor tasks elicited reproducible contralateral activation in the M1 and S1 in 10 healthy controls and 6 patients. The SMA was localized in all healthy controls and in 5 of 6 patients. Head motion was reduced in passive tasks compared with active tasks.
