Using Diffusion Weighted Imaging to Map Changes in White Matter Connectivity in Chronic Stroke Aphasia
The role of white matter pathways in language networks has received much attention in recent years. This is largely due to advances in diffusion imaging techniques, which have enabled exploration of white matter properties in vivo. The emergent model from such work proposes that language processing is underpinned by a dorsal and a ventral pathway connecting anterior and posterior regions involv...
متن کاملRegional White Matter Damage Predicts Speech Fluency in Chronic Post-Stroke Aphasia
RECENTLY, TWO DIFFERENT WHITE MATTER REGIONS THAT SUPPORT SPEECH FLUENCY HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED: the aslant tract and the anterior segment of the arcuate fasciculus (ASAF). The role of the ASAF was demonstrated in patients with post-stroke aphasia, while the role of the aslant tract shown in primary progressive aphasia. Regional white matter integrity appears to be crucial for speech production; ...
متن کاملWhite matter predicts functional connectivity in premanifest Huntington's disease
OBJECTIVES The distribution of pathology in neurodegenerative disease can be predicted by the organizational characteristics of white matter in healthy brains. However, we have very little evidence for the impact these pathological changes have on brain function. Understanding any such link between structure and function is critical for understanding how underlying brain pathology influences th...
متن کاملComparative Effectiveness of Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA) and Phonological Components Analysis (PCA) for Anomia Treatment in Persian Speaking Patients With Aphasia
Objectives: Anomia is one of the most common and persistent symptoms of aphasia. Although treatments of anomia usually focus on semantic and/or phonological levels, which both have been demonstrated to be effective, the relationship between the underlying functional deficit in naming and response to a particular treatment approach remains unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the rela...
متن کاملThe neural correlates of semantic feature analysis in chronic aphasia: discordant patterns according to the etiology.
This event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study reports on the impact of semantic feature analysis (SFA) therapy on the neural substrate sustaining the recovery from severe anomia in two patients: one participant was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia (PPA) 2 years before this study; the other participant acquired aphasia 8 years before this study. The participant ...
