+, Significant improvement; (o), no change; −, significant deterioration. Non-responder, patient showed no positive response to motor or language therapy; partial responder, partial positive response, i.e., significant improvement in one of the applied tests; strong responder, strong positive response, i.e., significant improvement in both applied tests; –, no lesion measured; CST, corticospinal tract; SLF, superior longitudinal fasciculus; AF, arcuate fasciculus.

Lesion volume was calculated within the FLAIR data (voxels).
