Corticospinal tract structure and excitability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A DTI and TMS study

Underlying neural factors contribute to poor outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Neurophysiological adaptations have been identified in corticospinal tract excitability, however limited evidence exists on neurostructural changes that may influence motor recovery in ACLR patients. To 1) quantify hemispheric differences in structural properties of the corticospinal tract in patients with a history of ACLR, and 2)...
