Graph theory analysis of resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging in essential tremor.

Graph theory analysis of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging in essential tremor Constantin Tuleasca gratefully acknowledges receipt of a "Young Researcher in Clinical Research Award" (Jeune Chercheur en Recherche Clinique) from the University of Lausanne (UNIL), Faculty of Biology and Medicine (FBM) and the Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV). Finally, the right intracalcarine cortex and the left orbitofrontal cortex showed a shorter average path length in ET patients, while the left frontal operculum and the right planum polare showed a higher betweenness centrality in ET patients. In fact, using task-based fMRI, Archer et al. ([2]) provided evidence of a widespread visually sensitive functional network, including extrastriate areas V3 and V5, that relates to tremor severity in patients with essential tremor (ET).
