[Effect of acupuncture method on fractional anisotropy of diffusion densor imaging and upper extremity motor function after cerebral infarction].

Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture method (for regulating the function of the Conception Vessel and promoting the circulation of the Governor Vessel) on fractional anisotropy (FA) and upper-extremity motor function after cerebral infarction by diffusion densor imaging (DTI) technology.

Methods: The patients with cerebral infarction were divided into an acupuncture group and a control group according to the random number table method, 27 cases in each group. In the control group, the basic treatment with conventional medication was used.
