However, the majority of the subjects examined were right-handed, and relatively less is known about the consistency of language lateralization in left handers. Two fMRI tasks, the verbal fluency and the homophone judgment tasks that involved semantic fluency and phonological processing respectively, were used to examine the language representation in Chinese speaking left-handers. Weighted laterality index (wLI) was calculated for evaluating language lateralization. Our study showed atypical language lateralization in 5% of the right-handers, with similar incidence as previous western findings, but showed greater proportion (35%-50%) in left-handers. This study provided consistent evidence that fMRI is a robust measure in determining language lateralization in Chinese right-handers. However, more caution needs to be taken for left-handers undergoing presurgical planning by using clinical fMRI when the eloquent cortex is the focus, and more than one kind of language tasks may be required. |
