About the Cover
Cover design Cortical areas involved in reading words aloud in 10 fluent speakers (left) and nine developmental stutterers (right). The centres of the active cortical patches in individual subjects, obtained from whole-head MEG recordings, are denoted by the symbols, with the different shapes and colours (white and black circles, triangles, squares, and arrowheads) depicting the grouping of sources into distinct regions of interest. The grey circles denote sources which did not belong to any well-defined cluster. The large black diamonds indicate the location of the hand sensorimotor cortex in the left and right hemispheres. Significant differences between the two subject groups in timing and strength of cortical activation were found in the left inferior frontal region (white squares) and in the left and right sensorimotor/premotor cortices (white circles). From `Single word reading in developmental stutterers and fluent speakers' by Salmelin et al., 11841202.
