Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

* Quantitative assessment method developed for brain plasticity through disability rehabilitation using a brain imaging technique.
* Development of brain imaging technology to improve understanding of brain plasticity during rehabilitation and to improve the efficiency of rehabilitation treatment for people with brain injury. ○ Development of the latest brain function image analysis algorithm and data processing technology

* Development of new technology for imaging brain plasticity in addition to existing functional imaging technology and diffuse imaging technology (Example: Myelinated brain imaging technology, susceptibility imaging (SWI) technology)
* Development of image reconstruction software technology using new image technology
* Multi-image and repeated shot data processing technology, wheat analysis technology development (Example: 3D registration technology, automated segmentation technology)
* Conducted clinical research on clinical quantitative evaluation of brain plasticity due to rehabilitation treatment

* Recruitment of a group of patients for pursuing plasticity through rehabilitation among stroke patients (estimating the number of sample patients by setting a specific patient group and analyzing statistical power)
* Image-based brain change analysis through patient rehabilitation and before and after imaging
* Comparative analysis through securing a control group and activating the control group. Derivation of clinical relevance through comparison with rehabilitation process
