It is hypothesized that there is a functional dissociation between cognitive estimation processes and object naming due to different functional specialization of the left and right hemispheres, respectively.

Neuropsychologische Schätzdefizite bei rechtsfrontaler und rechtstemporaler Epilepsie

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Nach dem bisherigen Forschungsstand sind neuropsychologische Beeintrachtigungen der Schatzfunktion vor allem bei rechtshemispharischen Lasionen zu erwarten. Ziele: Es ...

Object naming and semantic knowledge in temporal lobe epilepsy.

Early onset TLE patients have a semantic knowledge deficit that contributes to dysnomia, and the semantic knowledge score was the only significant predictor of patients' object-naming performance.

Investigating temporal lobe contribution to confrontation naming using MRI quantitative volumetrics

Quantitative MR volumetrics used to investigate the relative contribution of the hippocampus and extrahippocampal temporal lobe volumes to confrontation naming performance in 53 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy showed a stronger relationship for left temporal lobe volume than right temporal lobeVolume in predicting naming performance.

The nature and course of neuropsychological morbidity in chronic temporal lobe epilepsy

Cross-sectional analyses demonstrate that increasing duration of epilepsy is associated with worsening mental status, and individuals with less educational attainment exhibit especially poor cognitive function in association with chronicity of epilepsy.

Differences in functional MR imaging activation patterns associated with confrontation naming and responsive naming.

Findings are consistent with cortical stimulation studies and suggest that responsive naming produces more widespread activation within the temporal lobe compared with confrontation naming.

Functional magnetic resonance imaging of verbal fluency and confrontation naming using compressed image acquisition to permit overt responses

Two overt fMRI paradigms successfully activated regions involved in executive and word retrieval processes and overcame the potential artefacts resulting from overt speech during image acquisition, providing useful neuropsychological tools to investigate cognitive deficits in clinical populations.
