January 3, 2008 — A new study suggests that a smaller craniotomy in conjunction with negative language mapping can be used to maximize tumor removal and minimize deficits when gliomas within or near ...

We aimed to investigate clinical parameters that affected the results of navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (nrTMS) language mapping by comparing the results of preoperative nrTMS ...

Correlating the human connectome with clinical responses elicited during intraoperative brain mapping helps understanding of the intrinsic organization of the human brain. Methods for locating ...

A preoperative procedure might enable surgeons to protect the language centers during brain tumor removal without needing to keep patients awake during surgery. A technique that maps a patient's ...

When removing cancerous tissue in the brain, neurosurgeons often use "awake brain mapping" to minimize the risk of causing unintended disruptions to a patient's quality of life while removing as much ...
