A Closer Look at the Brain and Aphasia
To understand recovery processes in the brain, some researchers are attempting to use functional MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) to uncover the anatomical organization of the human brain regions involved in comprehending words and sentences. This type of research may improve understanding of how these areas reorganize after focal brain injury. The results could have implications for both the basic understanding of brain function and the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases.
