Purpose: Several adult studies have documented the importance of the peri-stroke areas to
aphasia recovery. But, studies examining the differences in patterns of cortical participation …

Stroke patients often display deficits in language function, such as correctly naming objects.
Our aim was to evaluate the reliability and the patterns of poststroke language recovery …

Background: Recovery from stroke-induced aphasia is typically protracted and involves
complex functional reorganization. The relative contributions of the lesioned and non …

Abstract Language is not a single function, but instead results from interactions between
neural representations and computations that can be damaged independently of each other …

Background and Purpose—Two mechanisms for recovery from aphasia, repair of damaged
language networks and activation of compensatory areas, have been proposed. In this …

Recovery from aphasia is thought to depend on neural plasticity, that is, the functional
reorganization of surviving brain regions such that they take on new or expanded roles in …

Recovery from aphasia, loss of language following a cerebrovascular incident (stroke), is a
complex process involving both left and right hemispheric regions. In our study, we analyzed …

Purpose: The neural mechanisms that support aphasia recovery are not yet fully understood.
Our goal was to evaluate longitudinal changes in naming recovery in participants with …

The loss and recovery of language functions are still incompletely understood. This
longitudinal functional MRI study investigated the neural mechanisms underlying language …

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 …
