Abstract:
The traditional ideas consider that aphasia is caused by the damage of cortical language center. However, with the development of imaging techniques, especially the appearance of diffusion tensor imaging and tractography, it is found that subcortical white matter also participates in the language course and plays an important part in aphasia.
