2015, Progress in Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :Due to the lack of more direct methods to investigate neural pathways underlying certain behaviors (i.e., implantable electrodes, fiber tracking, optogenetics, genetically modified animals), alternative assessments need to be employed in humans. Noninvasive or minimally invasive electrophysiological recordings can elucidate the integrity and connectivity of central and peripheral sensory and motor pathways in SCI patients either during a resting state (i.e., while subjects are lying; Chabot et al., 1985; Curt and Dietz, 1996, 1997; Curt et al., 1998; Kirshblum et al., 2001; Kovindha and Mahachai, 1992) or during activities such as locomotion (Barthelemy et al., 2010; Capaday et al., 1999; Dietz et al., 1998, 2002, 2009; Fung and Barbeau, 1994; Harkema et al., 1997; Schubert et al., 1997). Interestingly, SCI patients may improve their ambulatory capacity in the absence of concomitant improvements of corticospinal conduction velocity assessed via the latencies of motor- and somatosensory-evoked potentials (MEPs and SSEPs) (Curt et al., 2008).
