Beyond the Motor Cortex: Functional Network Mapping Redefines Cerebral Palsy Prediction After Neonatal Stroke
By MedXY|Mar 20, 2026
A landmark study using lesion network mapping reveals that cerebral palsy after neonatal stroke is driven by disruptions in extensive functional networks, including the thalamus and cerebellum, rather than just localized motor cortex damage
