(Re)organisation of the somatosensory system after early brain lesion: a lateralization index fMRI study

Conclusion: High levels of activation in the contralesional hemisphere were associated with high levels of sensory impairment in individuals with unilateral cerebral palsy. The interhemispheric (re)organization of the somatosensory system may not effectively compensate for somatosensory impairment.
