Objective:To investigate the activity changes of the baseline brain in patients with Benign Essential Blepharospasm (BEB) by resting-state fMRI fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF) method.Methods:28 patients with BEB and 28 healthy controls group were scanned on a 3.0T MRIscanner. The image data were analyzed with software SPM8, DPARSF and REST. Results The whole brain analysis indicated that in comparison with the normal control group, there was a ncreased fALFF in the right major sensorimotor arearight caudate headleft thalamus. the fALFF in the left thalamus were positively correlated with the JRS total score.
