BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The accuracy of preoperative blood oxygen level–
dependent fMRI remains controversial. This study assessed the association between the …

Background Blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) plays an important role in identifying functional cortical areas of the brain. especially …

BACKGROUND Use of conventional blood oxygen level-dependent functional magnetic
resonance imaging (conventional-BOLD-fMRI) presents challenges in accurately identifying …

Purpose Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has an established role in
neurosurgical planning; however, ambiguity surrounds the comparative value of resting and …

Object. The purpose of the present study was to compare the results of functional magnetic
resonance (fMR) imaging with those of intraoperative cortical stimulation in patients who …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Functional MR (fMR) imaging data coregistered to a
neurosurgical navigation system have been proposed as guides for the resection of brain …

Background Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a widely used method for
research and visualization of the brain function. However, its clinical use is still limited. Our …

Objective To explore the role of preoperative blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD)
functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) to …

OBJECTIVE: Low-grade brain tumors may remain asymptomatic in contrast to malignant
gliomas. The mechanisms underlying the preservation of cerebral function in such gliomas …

Purpose The hand knob area is the cortical representation of motor hand function. The
current study aimed to investigate the effects of eloquent area gliomas on the morphometry …
