View full abstract and other project information on NIH RePORTER Go To NIH RePORTER Excerpt: Response to post-stroke aphasia language rehabilitation is variable, mainly because there are few predictors that can help identify individualized treatment options. Imaging techniques, such as Voxel-based Lesion Symptom Mapping (VLSM) have been useful in linking specific brain areas to language behavior; however, further development is required to optimize use of structural and functional information in guiding individualized treatment for our Veterans with aphasia. This CDA1 addresses this gap... |
