Clinical Implications of Dystonia as a Neural Network Disorder.

ABSTRACT: Isolated dystonia is a neurological disorder of diverse etiology, multifactorial pathophysiology, and wide spectrum of clinical presentations. We review the recent neuroimaging advances that led to the conceptualization of dystonia as a neural network disorder and discuss how current knowledge is shaping the identification of biomarkers of dystonia and the development of novel pharmacological therapies.
