Objectives: We sought to evaluate the benefit of 3 T compared with 1.5 T during presurgical
functional magnetic resonance imaging. Materials and Methods: Six participants performed …

Abstract Language areas of the brain can be mapped in individual participants with
functional MRI. We investigated the validity and reliability of four language mapping …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the
reproducibility of functional MR imaging (fMRI) activation (volume and laterality) within both …

Brain lesions cause functional deficits, and one treatment for this condition is lesion
resection. In most cases, presurgical planning (PSP) and the information from laterality …

Abstract Language functional magnetic resonance imaging for neurosurgical planning is a
useful but nuanced technique. Consideration of primary and secondary language anatomy …

✓ Dissociated language functions are largely invalidated by standard techniques such as
the amobarbital test and cortical stimulation. Language studies in which …

Background Task-based functional MRI (tb-fMRI) is a well-established technique used to
identify eloquent cortex, but has limitations, particularly in cognitively impaired patients who …

Background and purpose Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive
pre-surgical tool used to assess localization and lateralization of language function in brain …

Background Knowledge about the cortical representation of semantic processing is mainly
derived from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) or direct cortical stimulation …

Discussion. At this time, our results show that frontal language systems, which in part, are
likely to reflect speech-motor programming areas, are found to be routinely active across our …
