Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the method of evaluation for functional connectivity of cerebellum and spinal neuron with cerebellar transcranial magnetic stimulation and spinal reflex (H-reflex). In resulting, the spinal reflex was facilitated by cerebellar magnetic stimulation (cerebellar spinal facilitation : CSpF). Furthermore, the amount of facilitation was modulated by task associated with activity of cerebellum. Therefore, we can evaluate the function of cerebellum or functional connectivity of cerebellum and spinal neuron with CSpF.
