Results of functional MRI A) Brain MR images showing a large cyst in the right frontal lobe by a radiologist (Woo Mok Byun) (red arrows). B) On pre-repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) functional MRI, bilateral primary sensori-motor cortices (SM1s) are activated during movements of either hand (B). Activation of the left SM1 (green arrow) is no longer observed on post-repetitive TMS functional MRI during movements of the left hand and bilateral SM1 are activated during movements of the right hand.
