@DrBarzi I haven’t been in either of them honestly, but you are right, states is huge and tech wise almost everything starts its evolution there as a whole, but this is also selective areas for each selective category
When you’re asked to localize the lesion in a patient with aphasia, do you suddenly feel speechless?
At a loss for words to categorize the type of aphasia?
Never fear—here is the decision tree for patients w/aphasia and the associated anatomic correlates
Three main questions:
1. Fluency? Nonfluency indicates damage to the FRONTAL language regions anterior to the fissure of Rolando
2. Comprehension? Impaired comprehension indicates damage to the TEMPOROPARIETAL language regions posterior to the fissure of Rolando
3. Repetition? Impaired repetition indicates damage within the core PERISYLVIAN language zone
The answers will lead you both to the type of aphasia and the location of the lesion.
Keep this figure with you for quick reference—and then when you’re asked about a patient with aphasia, you will have a lot to say!
