The characteristics and reproducibility of motor speech functional neuroimaging in healthy controls

Frontiers of Human Neuroscience - Nov 2024

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) offers valuable insights into how the brain controls motor speech functions. However, there are still questions about how consistent fMRI results are over time. In this study, we explored the reliability of fMRI by having participants perform a simple word repetition task at two different time points. Our goal was to assess the reproducibility of this advanced imaging technique and its potential to enhance our understanding of brain activity related to speech.

For this study, Redenlab collaborated with Monash University and The University of Melbourne.
