Preferred Label : agnosia;
MeSH definition : Loss of the ability to comprehend the meaning or recognize the importance of various
forms of stimulation that cannot be attributed to impairment of a primary sensory
modality. Tactile agnosia is characterized by an inability to perceive the shape and
nature of an object by touch alone, despite unimpaired sensation to light touch, position,
and other primary sensory modalities.;
