Lesion maps from all 4 pure alexic patients have been overlaid and superimposed on a canonical single-subject MRI brain scan in MNI space. The colored scale refers to the number of voxels in common across the patients, with yellow voxels being common to all 4. All axial slices containing yellow voxels are shown (total volume of 100% overlap = 32 voxels or 256 mm³). The red crosshairs converge on the peak voxel identified in a meta-analysis as being at the center of the VWFA (−44 −58 −15). L = left.
