Functional neuroanatomy of language without speech: An ALE meta-analysis of sign language

We identified the neural substrates of sign language in deaf singers on meta-analytic grounds by carrying out Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) meta-analysis and corresponding diagnostics using the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) literature on sign language processing and production.

基于元分析的原则，我们通过执行激活可能性估计（ALE）元分析和相应诊断，利用功能磁共振成像（fMRI）和正电子发射断层扫描（PET）文献关于手语处理和产生的资料，确定了聋人歌手中手语神经基础的构成。
