Spatial Neglect and Hemispheric Dysfunction
Spatial Neglect and Hemispheric Dysfunction is a research topic within Cognitive Neuroscience. Science Explorer counts 14k research works in it since 1950. 15.1% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers explores the neural basis, anatomy, and recovery mechanisms of spatial neglect, including the role of attention networks, visual awareness, and rehabilitation interventions such as prism adaptation. It delves into the neuroanatomical correlates, subtypes, and functional components of unilateral and hemispatial neglect, providing insights into the assessment and treatment of this condition.
