Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To study with fMRI the pattern of sensorimotor activation in patients with spasmodic dysphonia (laryngeal dystonia) compared to healthy controls. METHODS: The authors performed fMRI measurements during vocal motor tasks in 12 patients with laryngeal dystonia and compared them with those of 12 healthy volunteers. Patients were scanned before (pre) and after (post) treatment with local injections of botulinum toxin (BTX). They examined two different motor tasks: simple vocalization indu...     »
