The difference in cortical activation pattern for complex motor skills: A functional near- infrared spectroscopy study
Abstract The human brain is lateralized to dominant or non-dominant hemispheres, and controlled through large-scale neural networks between correlated cortical regions. Recently, many neuroimaging studies have been conducted to examine the origin of brain lateralization, but this is still unclear. I...
