Abstract
Thirty-four patients with right hemispheric cerebrovascular accident and 31 control subjects were examined with a new picture scanning task, the Two Part Picture, as well as with two picture scanning tasks and conventional tests from the Behavioural Inattention Test (BIT). The sensitivity of these tasks in detecting visuospatial neglect was evaluated, and compared to conventional neglect tests. The three pictures varied markedly in their ability to identify neglect. The Two Part Picture was clearly the most sensitive picture scanning task, also showing high agreement with the conventional tests of the BIT. The Two Part Picture is recommended as a useful detector for screening of visuospatial neglect.
