Synopsis

A cortical-subcortical functional atlas has been recently proposed from direct-electrode stimulation on low grade glioma patients. The agreement between that atlas and non-invasive pre-operative resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) data has not yet been investigated. In this study, we use pre-operative rs-fMRI data and the RestNeuMap tool to investigate the agreement between language and sensory networks in a group of low grade glioma patients. We find that rs-fMRI networks of language and speech arrest show greater overlap with DES-derived functional atlas than the sensorimotor network.
