The neuroanatomy of Broca's aphasia
These findings emphasize the distributed nature of the neural network underlying Broca's aphasia, extending beyond traditional Broca's area to include multiple cortical regions and their associated white matter tracts. The study provides new insights into the structural basis of language impairment, offering a more nuanced understanding of Broca's aphasia.
