Aphasia after middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke shows highly variable degrees of
recovery. One possible explanation may be offered by the variability of the occlusion …

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

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Objectives To investigate the hypothesis that language recovery in post‐stroke aphasia is
associated with structural brain changes. Methods We evaluated whether treatment‐induced …

Background and Purpose—This study was undertaken to correlate functional recovery from
aphasia after acute stroke with the temporal evolution of the anatomic, physiological, and …

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

Background To date, functional imaging studies of treatment-induced recovery from chronic
aphasia only assessed short-term treatment effects after intensive language training. In the …
