Our nervous system has two dedicated areas that allow us to communicate. The production of speech takes place in Broca’s area located in the frontal lobe. However, the interpretation of speech happens elsewhere. Wernicke’s area – located in the temporal lobe – processes what is being spoken.
24 Ιουλ 2023 · Wernicke area receives its vascular supply from the inferior temporal branch of the middle cerebral artery. The temporal lobe drains blood via 2 primary routes. The first involves the anterior drainage of the temporal lobe via the superficial middle cerebral vein.
The term “Wernicke's area” is most often used as an anatomical label for the gyri forming the lower posterior left sylvian fissure. Although traditionally this region was held to support language comprehension, modern imaging and neuropsychological ...
21 Σεπ 2017 · Our results clearly demonstrate that SSC is superior to FAS and CAT at localizing Wernicke’s area, with a significantly higher activation rate in both cancer patients and controls.
27 Ιουν 2017 · “Wernicke’s area” has become an anatomical label usually applied to the left posterior superior temporal gyrus and adjacent supramarginal gyrus. Recent evidence shows that this region is not critical for speech perception or for word comprehension.
25 Ιουν 2015 · The results of this study are in conflict with the classic neurological literature, which associates damage to Wernicke’s area with severe impairments of both sentence and word comprehension. One resolution of this discrepancy lies in the nature of patient populations that have been investigated.
The location of the underlying lesion site, known as Wernicke's area, remains controversial. Questions related to this controversy were addressed in 72 patients with primary progressive aphasia who collectively displayed a wide spectrum of cortical atrophy sites and language impairment patterns.
