(Non-) invasive mapping of cortical language areas

The precise localization of eloquent cortex is crucial for planning the extent and exact location of cortical resection in neurosurgical settings. While all brain areas are of functional importance, the term "eloquent" brain region refers to structures where damage can result in severe neurological symptoms that significantly affect the patient's functional outcome and quality of life. Presurgical functional mapping has become an essential tool to avoid neurological impairment after surgical resection in patients with focal epilepsy or resectable tumors.
