In the researchers' words
Walk recovery is one of the goals of rehabilitation programs in patients with acquired brain injury. Recent experiences have shown the effectiveness of rehabilitation programs including traditional physiotherapy in combination with robotic gait training systems (Lokomat). In this context, MRI can be used to assess the treatment effects on the muscular tissue, providing useful clinical indications for the optimization of the rehabilitation programs on the basis of the damage extension and the muscle characteristics.
