Behavioral measures of reading skills were administered immediately after treatment. Brain and behavioral measures was also administered to a group of 7 age-matched non-dyslexic readers, receiving no treatment. Results indicated that while before treatment the dyslexic boys showed the typical profile of greater lactate elevation in the left anterior quadrant of the brain, after treatment, brain lactate elevation in these regions during the same phonological task did not differentiate Neurobiological Correlates of Dyslexia 39 the two groups.

Behaviorally, the dyslexic participants reached age level achievements in phonological decoding and text oral reading. Approximately 1 year after the initial images were obtained, six out of eight participants maintained their age-level phonological awareness. Also, no differences were found between the groups in lactate elevation in the left frontal quadrant during the same phonological task. Regarding the lexical access task, lactate metabolic activation increased for the dyslexic participants compared with the control participants.
