The diffusion of water molecules inside organic tissues is often anisotropic (1). Namely, if
there are aligned structures in the tissue, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of water …

Cognitive impairment, particularly memory disruption, is a major complicating feature of
epilepsy. This Review will begin with a focus on the problem of memory impairment in …

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common drug-resistant epilepsy in adults. As
morphometric studies have shown widespread structural damage in TLE, this condition is …

Diffusion-based tractography enables the graphical reconstruction of the white matter
pathways in the brain and spinal cord of living humans. This technique has many potential …

Graph theoretical analysis of structural and functional connectivity MRI data (ie. diffusion
tractography or cortical volume correlation and resting-state or task-related (effective) fMRI …

Studies of semantic dementia and PET neuroimaging investigations suggest that the
anterior temporal lobes (ATL) are a critical substrate for semantic representation. In stark …

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common form of refractory focal epilepsy.
Neuroimaging researches have demonstrated structural abnormalities in several cerebral …

The key question of how the brain codes the meaning of words and pictures is the focus of
vigorous debate. Is there a “semantic hub” in the temporal poles where these different inputs …

Conceptual knowledge provides the basis on which we bring meaning to our world. Studies
of semantic dementia patients and some functional neuroimaging studies indicate that the …

Objective: To investigate the relationship between white matter tract integrity and language
and memory performances in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Methods: Diffusion …
