Study Summary
The integrity of structural connectivity supporting cortical regions in the left brain hemisphere is hypothesized to enable treatment-induced naming recovery in persons with language difficulties after a stroke (aphasia). The investigators will map whole brain connectivity (i.e., the brain connectome) to investigate the role of cortical connectivity in impairment (Aim 1) and recovery (Aim 2) in patients with aphasia undergoing treatment. This information will be used to construct personalized markers of anomia treatment outcome (Aim 3), which may serve as a guide for speech-language pathologists and neurologists when facing patient management decisions.
Primary Outcome
The primary outcome measure of this study is the objective improvement in the number of correctly spoken words after therapy. This study is also aimed at evaluating the neurological mechanisms (i.e., integrity of brain networks after stroke) that enable therapy-induced improvement.
