Exploring Advanced Imaging Techniques to Characterize Botulinum Toxin Diffusion in Human Muscle

Summary

Since the use of botulinum toxin in treating spasticity has already been proven effective, we are now using magnetic resonance imaging to examine the toxin diffusion within muscle (post injection) in order to determine the specific toxin dose required for an optimal treatment response.
