The purpose of this study is to characterize the cortical connectivity changes in the brain
of spastic diplegic children after Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.
of spastic diplegic children after Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.
To establish the structural changes in the corticopyramidal tract using diffusion
tractography imaging (DTI) due to selective dorsal rhizotomy and compare the resting state
functional connectivity(rsfcMRI) temporal latency differences of spastic diplegics for
Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.
