- Original description
The current study evaluates first the assumption that eye-movements during free viewing behavior are potential biomarkers of visuospatial deficits in stroke population. Second, it assesses the feasibility of a novel visual exploration training to ameliorate visuospatial deficits, by exploiting an auditory biofeedback system coupled with online parsed fixations.Read full original descriptionShow less
Eye-movement Dynamics During Free Viewing as a Biomarker for Assessment of Visuospatial Functions and for Closed-loop Rehabilitation in Stroke
The current study evaluates first the assumption that eye-movements during free viewing behavior are potential biomarkers of visuospatial deficits in stroke population. Second, it assesses the feasibility of a novel visual exploration training to ameliorate visuospatial deficits, by exploiting an auditory biofeedback system coupled with online parsed fixations.
Inclusion: Vigilant; First unifocal ischemic or hemorragic stroke; Presence of maximum two lacunae, clinically silent, smaller than 15 mm. in the structural MRI; Evident symptoms in the visual, attentive, memory, motor or language domain supported by the radiological exam.
Exclusion: Previous stroke history, visible at the radiological exam; Presence of other neurological, psychiatric or medical conditions which may undermine interpretation of behavioral and neuroimaging results; Multifocal deficit; Incapacity to remain vigilant during the required assessments; Claustrophobia and/or metallic objects which could prevent MRI acquisition.
