En este episodio, resumimos varios artículos científicos sobre espasticidad, en cuanto a conceptualización, neurofisiología, evaluación y tratamiento. Es una forma de actualización anual sobre esta temática tan estudiada en neurociencia. Hablamos sobre nuevos estudios de neuroimagen sobre la espasticidad, consensos sobre evaluación y desarrollos emergentes de tratamientos médicos.
