Statistical voxel-wise lesion-behaviour mapping (VLBM) analyses using the t-test statistic for the continuous variable ‘neglect severity’. Presented are all voxels that survived a 1% false discovery rate cut-off threshold. (A) Analysis of all 54 patients with right hemisphere damage based on their neglect severity scores measured in the initial phase of the stroke, on average 12.4 days after stroke onset. Injury to highlighted regions predicts acute/subacute neglect. (B) Analysis of all 54 patients with right hemisphere damage based on their neglect severity scores measured in the chronic phase of the stroke, on average 490.8 days after stroke onset. Injury to highlighted regions predicts chronic neglect, regardless of acute behaviour. (C) Analysis of the neglect severity scores measured in the chronic phase of the stroke as in (B), but now carried out on a subsample (n = 38) of the patients with right hemisphere damage. This subsample no longer included those patients that showed spatial neglect in the initial phase of the stroke but had recovered by the time of the second examination. Montreal Neurological Institute coordinates of each transverse section are given.
