Lesions Affecting Creativity Task Performance and the Creativity Circuit (IMAGE)
Caption
Lesion overlap maps from Abraham et al31 showing groups of patients with lesions in different neuroanatomical locations. Patients with lesions to the lateral frontal lobe (right) had impaired performance on creativity tasks, while patients with lesions to the frontal pole (left) had higher performance. B, Topographical relation of overlap maps in (A, white outlines) to the creativity circuit. Intersection of the lesion locations with our creativity circuit was significantly associated with lesion-induced effects on creativity task performance (eFigure 4 in Supplement 1). rFP indicates right frontal pole.
