Brain activity during walking in patient with spinal cord injury

The capacity for walking is an important assessment to reflect the ability about how the patients who have movement disorders to control their lower limbs. Electroencephalography (EEG), which can describe brain activities, has been widely used in the field of neural engineering. The present study investigates 2D scalp topography mapping while the subjects perform gait-like movements with the assistance of a dynamic tilt table. Based on the result, we concluded that the motor function and the most nerve circuit of lower limbs in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients in level D are as normal as healthy human.
