Asymmetry Matters: Diffusion Tensor Tractography of the Uncinate Fasciculus in Children with Verbal Memory Deficits [FUNCTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: These findings demonstrated microstructural aberrations with reduction of hemispheric asymmetry of the uncinate fasciculus, which could disrupt the normal frontotemporal connectivity in children with learning disorders attributed to verbal memory deficits. This outcome gives more understanding of pathologic mechanisms underlying this disorder.
