Developmental dyslexia is a frequent learning disability. The aim of this study is to
compare auditory evoked cortical responses to syllables and tones in developmental dyslexia
and controls (paired with age, gender). The study is conducted in 3 groups of subjects :8-10
years ; 11-17 years and 18-25 years. We suppose that cortical responses should be different
in develop...

Recent research reveals genetic and symptomatic overlap among children with speech sound
disorders (i.e., those who (misarticulate more sounds than would be expected for their age)
and children with dyslexia (i.e., those who struggle to learn to read). Children who have
speech sound disorders as preschoolers are at risk for the later emergence of dyslexia, a
risk that of...

Developmental dyslexia is a frequent learning disability. The aim of this study is to
analyze cortical thickness and phonological treatment in right handed adults with
developmental dyslexia. They are compared to control adults paired with age and laterality.
To study phonological treatment, the researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) with a rime ju...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) unlike X-rays and CT-scans does not use radiation to create
a picture. MRI use as the name implies, magnetism to create pictures with excellent
anatomical resolution. Functional MRIs are diagnostic tests that allow doctors to not only
view anatomy, but physiology and function. It is for these reasons that MRIs are excellent
methods for...
