Cortical Sensory Dysfunction and the Parietal Lobe

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

The parietal lobes are involved in integrating sensory information to form a body-centered representation of external space necessary for movement control. They are also important for language comprehension and mathematical skills. Impairment of the parietal lobes can lead to clinical features such as cortical sensory loss, apraxia, aphasia, or neglect of body and extrapersonal space.
