摘要： 面孔识别是一项重要的社会功能, 但是面孔失认症患者却面临着不能准确识别他人面孔的苦恼。面孔失认症是指不能识别熟人面孔甚至是自己的面孔, 该症状可以分为获得性面孔失认症(APA)和先天性面孔失认症(CPA)。APA患者受损脑区主要包括枕颞叶皮层、杏仁核、前额叶皮层等, 而CPA患者这些脑区的皮层密度与常人存在差异, 并且CPA存在遗传性。以后的研究可以重点关注受损脑区的精确定位、面孔失认症患者的筛选、基因基础以及文化差异研究等方面。

Abstract: The face recognition is an important social function, but prosopagnosic patients faced with distress can not accurately identify the faces of others. By definition, it means that the patients can not identify the faces of the acquaintances and even their own faces. It can be divided into the acquired prosopagnosia (APA) and congenital prosopagnosia (CPA). APA patients’ damaged brain regions including the occipital temporal cortex, amygdala and prefrontal cortex, and the density of these brain cortexes in CPA patients is different from that of the ordinary people. In addition, CPA has transmissibility. Future research can focus on the damaged brain areas of precise positioning, the screening of patients, genetic basis, as well as cultural differences.
