Abstract:Anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR), while successful can result in lasting impairment of language function. White matter bundles have been shown to explain some of the variance seen in language decline after ATLR. Network analysis of the structural connectome has been shown superior in predicting preoperative language ability but remains unexplored in predicting postoperative ability.Diffusion MRI-based tractography was used to generate the preoperative connectome on 54 left-lat- eralised (as determined b… Show more
