Neural Plasticity in Functional and Anatomical MRI Studies of Children with Tourette Syndrome

Background: Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder with childhood onset characterized by chronic motor and vocal tics. The typical clinical course of an attenuation of symptoms during adolescence in parallel with the emerging self-regulatory control during development suggests that pl...
