Assessing the digit organisation of focal hand dystonia using 7T functional MRI

Susan Francis, Glover, Paul, Rosa-Maria Sánchez-Panchuelo, Daisie O. Pakenham, George C. O’Neill, Miles R. Humberstone, Denis Schluppeck, Michael Asghar

This study uses 7T fMRI to compare digit maps in FHD patients and healthy volunteers before and after BTX treatment, finding disordered maps in FHD patients and changes in pRF sizes post-treatment.

Sensorimotor mapping of volitional facial movements in Tourette Syndrome

Caitlin Mairi Smith, Mairi S. Houlgreave, Michael Asghar, Susan Francis, S.J Jackson

This study investigates facial sensorimotor representations in Tourette Syndrome using fMRI, finding no group differences but reduced similarity in blink-specific maps and altered sensorimotor activation in TS.

Multi-centre, multi-vendor 7 Tesla fMRI reproducibility of hand digit representation in the human somatosensory cortex

Ian D. Driver, Rosa M Sanchez Panchuelo, Olivier E. Mougin, Michael Asghar, James Kolasinski, William T. Clarke, Catarina Rua, Andrew Morgan, Adrian Carpenter, Keith W. Muir, David Andrew Porter, Christopher T. Rodgers, Stuart Clare, Richard G. Wise, Richard W Bowtell, Susan Francis

This study assesses the reproducibility of 7 Tesla fMRI hand digit representation across multiple sites and within sites, finding lower inter-site than intra-site reproducibility but overall feasibility for multi-site studies.

Imaging human cortical responses to intraneural microstimulation using magnetoencephalography

George C. O’Neill, Roger Holmes Watkins, Rochelle Ackerley, Eleanor L. Barratt, Ayan Sengupta, Michael Asghar, Rosa Maria Sanchez Panchuelo, Matthew J. Brookes, Paul M. Glover, Johan Wessberg, Susan Francis

The paper uses intraneural microstimulation combined with MEG to study cortical responses to touch afferents, finding consistent beta rhythm modulation in primary somatosensory cortex.
