Abstract:
Background
The relationship between functional recovery after brain injury and concomitant neuroplastic changes is emphasized in recent
research. In the present study we aimed to delineate brain regions essential for language performance in aphasia using functional
magnetic resonance imaging and acquisition in a temporal sparse sampling procedure, which allows monitoring of overt verbal
responses during scanning.
