arcuate fasciculus

In 1809, he was the first to describe the white fibre tract now called the arcuate fasciculus.

The arcuate fasciculus is responsible for conveying information about the sound of words rather than their meaning.

These two regions are interconnected by a large white matter tract, the arcuate fasciculus.

The function of the arcuate fasciculus in the nondominant hemisphere is not well studied.

These studies have also found that there are anatomical differences in the Rolandic operculum and arcuate fasciculus.

Regardless of the role that the arcuate fasciculus plays in the disorder, the cortical component cannot be denied.

One function of the arcuate fasciculus is the connection between Wernicke's and Broca's area.

Absence of the arcuate fasciculus.

He provided in 1822 the name-due the arching shape of its longest fibres-now given to the arcuate fasciculus.

The articles states that through evolutionary time, language has become more specialized due to a rewiring in the brain through the arcuate fasciculus.

A band of fibres, the longitudinal arcuate fasciculus, runs between Broca's and Wernicke's areas.

There have been no known autopsy cases in which conduction aphasia was shown to be the result of a focused arcuate fasciculus lesion.

However, recent reviews and research have cast doubt on the singular role of the arcuate fasciculus and the model of spoken language in general.

Since some branches of the arcuate fasciculus extend further into the parietal lobe, it is believed that it has an important role in attention.

From Wernicke's area, the signal is taken to Broca's area through the arcuate fasciculus.

The arcuate fasciculus connects these two regions and circulates information back and forth, allowing short term memory to survive.

But if it gets downloaded into your flesh brain--well, they wiped out the one that trashes the arcuate fasciculus, thank God.

Chimpanzees lack Broca's area (for muscular co-ordination in speech), as well as the neighbouring arcuate fasciculus.

New research demonstrates that the arcuate fasciculus instead connects posterior receptive areas with motor areas, and not to Broca's area in particular.

Conduction aphasia: Characterized by poor speech repetition, this disorder is rather uncommon and happens when branches of the arcuate fasciculus are damaged.

He was responsible for identifying the arcuate fasciculus as the fibre tract that connected the Broca's and Wernicke's speech areas.

This might be caused by damage to the arcuate fasciculus, the structure that transmits information between Wernicke's area and Broca's area.

However, imaging cannot diagnose anomia on its own because the lesions may not be located deep enough to damage the white matter or damaging the arcuate fasciculus.

It involves a "left side blowout" which includes Broca's area, Wernicke's area and the Arcuate fasciculus.

Later work and examination of brain structures, however, implicated the arcuate fasciculus, a white matter bundle connecting the posterior temporoparietal junction with the frontal cortex.
