Raum- vs. aufmerksamkeitsbezogene Therapie bei Halbseiten-Neglekt: Ein Vergleich mithilfe von Verhaltens- und Bildgebungsdaten

Spatial vs Attention-Related Therapy of Visual Hemineglect: A Comparison by Means of Behavioral and Imaging Data. The efficacy of spacevs attention-related therapy in chronic neglect patients is compared by means of behavioral and imaging data. The results show that both spaceand attention-related therapy as single measures can lead to a more or less pronounced reduction of neglect symptoms. These improvements, however, are mostly only short-termed. Imaging results with respect to functional reorganization after spaceor attention-centered neglect therapy may lead to the hypothesis that these different therapy measures have impact on different parts of attention and orienting networks and that a combination of both therapy methods might lead to a complementary and reinforcing effect.
