Abstract:ObjectiveBrain lesions sometimes induce a failure of recognition of one's own deficits (anosognosia). Lack of deficit awareness may underlie damage of modality‐specific systems, e.g., visual cortex for visual anosognosia or motor/premotor cortex for motor anosognosia. However, focal lesions induce widespread remote structural and functional disconnection, and anosognosia, independent of modality, may also involve common neural mechanisms.MethodsHere, we study the neural correlates of Anton syndrome (AS), anoso… Show more
