Article Title: Language mapping using fMRI and direct cortical stimulation for brain tumor surgery the good, the bad, and the questionable
Abstract: Language functional magnetic resonance imaging for neurosurgical planning is a useful but nuanced technique. Consideration of primary and secondary language anatomy, task selection, and data analysis choices all impact interpretation. In the following chapter, we consider practical considerations and nuances alike for language functional magnetic resonance imaging in the support of and comparison with the neurosurgical gold standard, direct cortical stimulation. Pitfalls and limitations are discussed. ©2016 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
