By studying the patient's brain, Dr.Kensington will be able to learn which specific brain areas are involved in the speech function that the patient lost. This information can help in developing targeted interventions for the patient and understanding more about the brain's language processes. The other options (A, B, and D) are not directly related to studying the patient's brain, but rather involve different aspects such as determining the cause of the stroke, prevention, and life expectancy.
