FIGURE 3.
Voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping for dysphagia symptoms. Representative slices from VLSM maps computed for dysphagia symptoms of 275 patients with stroke. These maps are colorized depictions of logistic regression analysis results evaluating patient performance on a voxel-by-voxel basis. The warmer the color is, patients with lesions on the corresponding voxel hold higher chance to develop dysphagia. Age, gender, NIH stroke scale, TOAST classification and progressive stroke effects have been removed.
