Patterns of recovery and change in verbal and nonverbal functions in a case of crossed aphasia: implications for models of functional brain lateralization and localization.

abstract：:Explicit associative-semantic processing of words and pictures activates a distributed set of brain areas that has been replicated across a wide range of studies. We applied graph analysis to examine the structure of this network. We determined how the left ventral occipitotemporal transition zone (vOT) was connected ...
