Language development before and after temporal surgery in children with intractable epilepsy.

6 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: To obtain systematic knowledge of language development before and after epilepsy surgery in regions that, if damaged, are known to entail language impairment in adults. METHODS: Twenty-four children (mean age 11 years; range 5.8-15.7 years) ... Read more...

Multitask electrical stimulation for cortical language mapping: hints for necessity and economic mode of application.

12 Jul 2009 PURPOSE: Electrical stimulation mapping (ESM) is the gold standard for identifying language-relevant cortex prior to neurosurgical resections near the eloquent cortex. However, its application mode is not standardized, as some procedures rely on a ... Read more...

The usability of a Norwegian adaptation of the Children's Communication Checklist Second Edition (CCC-2) in differentiating between language impaired and non-language impaired 6- to 12-year-olds.

30 May 2009 The aim of the present study was to evaluate if the Norwegian adaptation of the Children's Communication Checklist-2 (CCC-2) differentiates between a language impaired and a non-language impaired population and to make a first evaluation of the ... Read more...
