Abstract
Modern lesion-symptom mapping methods offer highly sophisticated ways of identifying particular regions and networks, disruptions in which are causally associated with specific speech and language deficits. The translational insight afforded from these approaches is highly promising for improved patient care. This chapter briefly describes the history of and the major advances in the field, highlights the translational possibilities of advanced lesion-symptom mapping, and identifies challenges and future directions for these endeavours.
