One patient is found to be unable to identify more than one object at a time, but he can correctly identify the objects if they are presented individually. We can infer the damage region in his brain is in Select one: a. fusiform gyrus b. left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex c. both left and right posterior parietal lobe d. left anterior parietal lobe e. inferotemporal lobe

imagine that you are a neurologist. A patient has come to you with a cognitive deficit in their ability to name objects. Describe a brain activity recording technique you would use (e.g., PET, fMRI) and the brain area you would focus on (e.g., occipital lobe, temporal lobe) to determine if they have brain damage in an area that is important for this ability. You must name and describe the specific recording technique.
