Asymmetries and hemispheric interaction in the auditory system of elderly people
Nicole Angenstein
Abstract:Age-related changes of asymmetries in the auditory system and decreasing efficiency of hemispheric interaction have been discussed for some time. This mini-review discusses recent neuroimaging studies on alterations in lateralization of cortical processing and structural changes concerning the division of labor and interaction between hemispheres during auditory processing in elderly people with the focus on people without severe hearing loss. Several changes of asymmetries in anatomy, function and neurotransm… Show more
