Disruption of bimanual movement by unilateral subcortical electrostimulation

Cortical areas involved in bimanual coordination have been regularly studied by functional neuroimaging and electroencephalography. However, the subcortical connectivity underlying this complex function has received less attention. Here, we used the technique of direct electrostimulation in awake patients who underwent surgery for brain glioma, with the goal to investigate the white matter pathways subserving bimanual coordination.
