Word repetition causes a significant bilateral metabolic increase in both superior temporal cortices. Frontal speech areas are less activated despite their presumable speech competence. We investigated in this study the relationship between frontal and temporal cortical areas during word repetition. We measured regional cerebral metabolic rates of glucose (CMRGI) in 15 normal subjects with positron emission tomography (PET) at rest and during word repetition. Significant correlations connected…Â

Two compensatory mechanisms in patients with slowly evolving brain lesions are described: An intrahemispheric mechanism with recruitment of left frontolateral regions other than classic language areas; and an interhemispherical compensatory mechanism with frontol lateral activation in the nondominant hemisphere, supporting the hypothesis that right frontolilateral activations are a disinhibition phenomenon.

Results suggest that H FA might serve as a measure in the evaluation of rehabilitation efforts in chronic aphasia: enhanced right-hemispheric HFA might indicate compensatory activation of contralateral language areas, which tends towards patterns comparable to normal subjects after effective language training.

Spoken and signed word production activated many of the same cortical regions, particularly those processing auditory and visual inputs; however, they activated different regions of sensorimotor cortex, and signing activated parietal cortex more than did speech.

It is concluded that single word comprehension and retrieval activate very different distributed regions of cerebral cortex, with Wernicke's area the only region engaged by both processes and with participation during silent word generation of networks involved in vocalization.

Investigation of right-handed patients who had aphasia caused by a single infarct with cranial CT, positron emission tomography, and a standard language test battery including the Token test suggests that disturbance of language comprehension is due to parietotemporal cortical dysfunction in all types of left MCA infarction.

The results suggest that the variance in neurophysiological measurements, introduced experimentally, was accounted for by two independent principal components and highlighted an intentional brain system seen in previous studies of verbal fluency.

Correlations between normalized regional cerebral blood flow values were used to examine functional associations among posterior brain regions for these two pathways in 17 young men during performance of a face matching task and a dot-location matching task to suggest correlational analysis of normalized rCBF can detect functional interactions between components of proposed brain circuits.

A network analysis was performed on data obtained from a PET study that examined both the changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and interregional correlations among human cortical areas during performance of an object vision (face matching) and spatial vision (dot- location matching) task.
