(14) Spatiotemporal brain activities on recalling body names

齋藤達彦,大西真一
第26回生体・生理工学シンポジウム論文集,pp.626-627,2011-9

The authors have measured electroencephalograms (EEGs) from subjects looking at a line drawing body part and recalling its name silently. The equivalent current dipole source localization (ECDL) method has been applied to these event reralted potentials (ERPs) : averaged EEGs. ECDs were localized to the right middle temporal gyrus; homologue of the Wernicke’s area. The language area of the present subject was considered to be located on the opposite side of brain; the right hemisphere. Then ECDs were localized to the right temporal area, the right angular gyrus and the right fusiform gyrus. These areas are located in the ventral pathway, and are related to the image recognition at higher visual recognition.
