Excitability of spinal neural function during several motor imagery tasks involving isometric opponens pollicis activity.

BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether mental simulation without actual muscle contraction associated with actual motion can increase the excitability of the spinal neural function. OBJECTIVE: To determine the best method for mental simulation without actual muscle contraction, we analyzed the F-wave of...
