Figure 6c. Areas of activation for the verbal fluency–verb generation paradigm. The subject was a left-handed 49-year-old man with a left hemispheric temporal lobe lesion. T1-weighted MR images show a lesion in the left frontal lobe (arrows in a); an area of superimposed activation in the left inferior frontal gyrus (classic Broca area) (arrows in b); and areas of activation bilaterally in the medial temporal gyri (classic Wernicke area) (arrows in c), with greater activation on the left side than on the right. Conclusions: left hemispheric dominance for language; classic Broca area activation adjacent to lesion.
