Modulation of corticospinal excitability during positive and negative motor imageries.

abstract：:In vitro quantitative autoradiography was used to visualize nicotinic receptors in large cryosections of human brain hemispheres. Sections 80 microns thick of human brain hemispheres were incubated with (-)-[3H]nicotine and the distribution of nicotinic receptors in human brain was studied. Increasing numbers of nicot...
