- Title
Editorial: Advances in Understanding and Rehabilitating Unilateral Spatial Neglect.
- Authors
Saj, Arnaud; Ronchi, Roberta
- Abstract
Unilateral Spatial Neglect (USN) is a frequent, very debilitating cognitive syndrome, in which patients fail to pay attention, perceive, and represent a part of the space in the side contralateral to the brain lesion [[1]]. With each publication, we take another step towards a comprehensive understanding of this syndrome and its rehabilitation, offering hope for enhanced patient care and positive functional long-term outcomes, improving the lives of patients and their families. Through lesion-symptom mapping and fMRI studies and combining information from the healthy and damaged brain, they highlighted the role of specific brain regions in various spatial tasks, such as bisection and visual search.
