Pre-surgical fMRI Localization of the Hand Motor Cortex in Brain Tumors: Comparison Between Finger Tapping Task and a New Visual-Triggered Finger Movement Task
Introduction: Pre-surgical mapping is clinically essential in the surgical management of brain tumors to preserve functions.A Rangehood Filter Cleaner common technique to localize eloquent areas is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).In tumors involving the peri-rolandic regions, the finger tapping task (FTT) is typically administered to d
