| Patient No. | Tumor Location | Main Activated Area of Preoperative fMRI | Main Activated Area of Brain Mapping | Main Activated Area of Postoperative fMRI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | L M1 | L M1 (small) | L M1 | L M1 (large) |
| 2 | R S1 | R M1 (small), R S1 | R M1 | R M1 (large), R S1 |
| 3 | L PMA | R and L M1, R T | L M1 | L M1 |
| 4 | R PMA | R F and T (large) | R M1 | R F and T (small), R M1 |
| 5 | R M1 | R T (large), R M1 (small) | R PMA | R T (small), R PMA and M1 (large) |
Note:—L indicates left; R, right; M1, primary motor area; S1, primary sensory area; PMA, premotor area; F, frontal; T, temporal lobe; small, relatively small area was activated; large, relatively large area was activated.
