Cortical plasticity of language measured by EEG in a case of anomic aphasia

摘要: Aphasia is a neurological disorder caused by left hemisphere damage, which generally followed some degree of spontaneous or therapy induced language recovery. Identifying the mechanisms underlying this recovery difficult, but determining neural substrate and its relationship with specific aspects word processing may provide cues for intervention. This study explores cortical dynamics linguistic functions during rehabilitation-induced in patient, CR, affected anomic aphasia. To aim we mapped language-related activity CR means slow potentials before after rehabilitative training. Thus, first EEGmeasure showed dysfunctional networks related to disease second EEG revealed new circuits functional
