Mirror detection aims to identify the mirror regions in given input image. Existing works mainly focus on integrating semantic features and structural mine specific relations between non-mirror regions, or introducing properties like depth chirality help analyze existence of mirrors. In this work, we observe that a real object typically forms loose symmetry relationship with its corresponding r...

OBJECTIVE To identify neural networks associated with the use of a mirror to superimpose movement of 1 hand on top of a nonmoving contralateral hand (often referred to as mirror therapy or mirror-induced visual illusion). DESIGN A functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study of mirror-induced visual illusion of hand movements using a blocked design in a 1.5T magnetic resonance imaging s...

Complex regional pain syndrome type I is a disorder of the extremities with disability and pain as the most prominent features. This paper describes the results of cognitive behavioural therapy combined with mirror box therapy in three patients with chronic complex regional pain syndrome type I.

The intervention given be range motion exercises using mirror therapy (mirror therapy) to increase muscle strength by including perception visual illusions movem...

Background: One in five patients experience persistent pain and disability after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), often driven by increased sensitization of the nervous system pain. Pain a sensitized are major barriers to postoperative rehabilitation impeding improved movement, function. Objective: To determine if mirror therapy following TKA yields any positive shifts self-reported pain, active ...
