C B Dodrill1.   

Abstract

The intracarotid Amytal procedure is a useful method for preoperative assessment of language dominance. It is also helpful for assuring that the contralateral hemisphere can sustain adequate memory function following temporal lobectomy. The methods of language and memory testing using intracarotid Amytal procedure are discussed.
