Aims: Spasticity is a relevant complication following stroke. The present study examined the lesion topography in patients with and without spasticity after cerebral infarction. Patients and Methods: 211 patients with initial hemiparesis due to a cerebral infarction were reassessed after 6 months. 98 patients could be included in the MRI analysis to examine the lesion topography and the lesion volume. The lesion topography analysis was performed as computer-aided study. The normalized lesion areas were superimposed by SPM matlab 6.5. Volume measurement was performed by voxel based morphometric analysis of normal…
