Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to
neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in …

The role of left and right hemisphere brain regions in language recovery after stroke-induced
aphasia remains controversial. Here, we summarize how neuroimaging studies increase the …

A growing literature is pointing towards the importance of white matter tracts in
understanding the neural mechanisms of language processing, and determining the nature …

Diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) is a noninvasive medical imaging tool used to investigate the
structure of white matter. The signal contrast in DTI is generated by differences in the …

When the language-dominant hemisphere is damaged by a focal lesion, the brain may
reorganize the language network through functional and structural changes known as …

Much is known about the role of cortical areas in language processing. The shift towards
network approaches in recent years has highlighted the importance of uncovering the role of …

The involvement of the right hemisphere (RH) in language, and especially after aphasia
resulting from left hemisphere (LH) lesions, has been recently highlighted. The present study …

Stroke represents a major cause of mortality and long-term disability among adult
populations, leaving a devastating socioeconomic impact globally. Clinical manifestation of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: MR imaging tractography is increasingly used to perform
noninvasive presurgical planning for brain gliomas. Recently, constrained spherical …

While converging evidence suggests linguistic roles of white matter tracts, detailed
associations between white matter alterations of dual pathways and language abilities …
