Brain scans reveal how deafness rewires reading

NCT ID NCT00400413

Summary

This study aimed to understand how the brains of people born deaf process reading compared to hearing people. Researchers used brain scans (fMRI) on 60 deaf and hearing adults to see if the brain areas used for reading are different. The goal was to learn more about how hearing loss affects the brain's reading pathways, not to test a treatment.
