VISUALIZATION OF BRAIN NEUROPLASTICITY IN THE ASPECT OF POST-STROKE REHABILITATION

Highlights

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Minimizing the consequences of the disease and potentiating the restoration of functionally significant areas of the brain is an important task of neurorehabilitation. At the same time, the search for effective rehabilitation strategies continues, taking into account the expansion of knowledge in the field of neuroplasticity based on the progress of neuroimaging capabilities in studying the mechanisms of post-stroke structural and functional reorganization of the brain.

Abstract

Neuroplasticity of the human brain is characterized by the ability to change its organization as a result of adaptation to external or internal stimuli. Local brain lesions, for example during a stroke, lead to functional and cognitive impairments of the brain, which is manifested by neurological deficits. Existing neuroimaging methods allow us to study both morpho-anatomical and functional brain rearrangements. Post-stroke rehabilitation methods, along with the possibilities of visualizing the processes of neuroplasticity of brain, make it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the measures taken and the patient's recovery. In this review, we aimed to conduct a retrospective analysis of studies on the mechanisms of neuroplasticity of brain and their relationship to recent advances in neurorehabilitation using the example of ischemic stroke. Timely and adequate use of rehabilitation practices in the post-stroke period is necessary for the most effective recovery of the patient while optimizing economic costs.
