 <http://email.dana.org/c.html?rtr=on&s=awru,s63s,594,eh0y,fny5,dlq4,m3a0> Using Brain Imaging to Unravel the Mysteries of Stuttering


By Soo-Eun Chang, Ph.D.



While researchers have made great strides in understanding stuttering in adults, the neural basis of stuttering in children largely remains a mystery. We do not yet know why up to 80 percent of children who stutter recover without intervention, nor do we know how to distinguish those who will recover without intervention from those who will not. However, recent findings support the idea that early intervention can alter or normalize brain function before stuttering-induced changes become hardwired.
