Presurgical Functional MR Imaging of Language and Motor Functions: Validation with Intraoperative Electrocortical Mapping

TL;DR: Functional MR imaging is a sensitive and specific method for mapping language and motor functions in patients with a focal mass adjacent to eloquent cortex, by using intraoperative electrocortical mapping (ECM) as the reference standard.
Journal ArticleDOI

Word Retrieval Learning Modulates Right Frontal Cortex in Patients with Left Frontal Damage

TL;DR: It is shown that patients with left frontal lesions and partially recovered aphasia learn, at a normal rate, a novel word retrieval task that requires the damaged cortex, indicating that frontal cortex is a source of top-down signals during learning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of aging on mindreading ability through the eyes: an fMRI study.

TL;DR: The aim of this work is to compare the neural basis of a specific aspect of ToM, the mindreading ability through the eyes, in healthy young and old subjects, and to discuss taking into account the recent literature dealing with cognitive functions during normal aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

A functional-anatomical model for lipreading.

TL;DR: The results suggest cortical activation circuits for lipreading from action representations that may differentiate lexical access from nonlexical processes.
