Mind over MRI: stroke patients learn to rewire reading skills
NCT ID NCT04875936
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study explores whether a special MRI technique can help people who have had a stroke improve their reading. Participants will practice controlling their own brain activity using real-time feedback from the MRI scanner. The goal is to retrain the brain's language areas to work better. The study involves 28 adults who had a left-hemisphere stroke within the past 3 months and have reading difficulties.
