- Abstract
This article discusses a study on interhemispheric functional connectivity (FC) in patients who have undergone surgical resection of the corpus callosum (CC). The study used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the FC in six epileptic patients. The results suggest that even in the absence of the CC, some interhemispheric communication is still present, possibly supported by extra-callosal pathways. Further research is needed to confirm these findings. The article provides valuable insights into the understanding of brain connectivity and the role of the CC.
