Quantified Analysis of Neuronal Recovery Using Myelin Imaging After Robot Assisted Upper Arm Training in Subacute Stroke Patients

* Quantitative assessment method developed for brain plasticity through disability rehabilitation using a brain imaging technique. * Development of brain imaging technology to improve understanding of brain plasticity during rehabilitation and to improve the efficiency of rehabilitation treatment for people with brain injury. ○ Development of the latest brain function image analysis algorithm and data processing technology * Development of new technology for imaging brain plasticity in addition to existing functional imaging technology and diffuse imaging technology (Example: Myelinated brain imaging technology, susceptibility imaging (SWI) technology) * Development of image reconstruction software technology using new image technology * Multi-image and repeated shot data processing technology, wheat analysis technology development (Example: 3D registration technology, automated segmentation technology) * Conducted clinical research on clinical quantitative evaluation of brain plasticity due to rehabilitation treatment * Recruitment of a group of patients for pursuing plasticity through rehabilitation among stroke patients (estimating the number of sample patients by setting a specific patient group and analyzing statistical power) * Image-based brain change analysis through patient rehabilitation and before and after imaging * Comparative analysis through securing a control group and activating the control group. Derivation of clinical relevance through comparison with rehabilitation process
