This is the first textbook on clinical fMRI. It is devoted to preoperative fMRI in patients with brain tumors and epilepsies, which are the most well-established clinical applications. By localizing and lateralizing specific brain functions, as well as epileptogenic zones, fMRI facilitates the selection of a safe treatment and the planning and performance of function-preserving neurosurgery. State of the art fMRI procedures are presented, with detailed consideration of the physiological and methodological background, imaging and data processing, normal and pathological findings, diagnostic possibilities and limitations, and other related techniques. All chapters are written by recognized experts in their fields, and the book is designed to be of value to beginners, trained clinicians and experts alike; Common terms and phrases: activation analysis anatomical application approach areas artifacts assessment associated blood BOLD brain tumors cells central cerebral changes clinical combination compared comparison condition contrast correction correlation cortical course depends detection direct dominance effect epilepsy et al evaluation fMRI frequency frontal functional imaging functional magnetic resonance functional MRI gyrus hand hemisphere human important increase indicate individual inferior intraoperative language lateralization lesions localization magnetic field magnetic resonance imaging mapping measured medial memory methods motion motor cortex movements Neuroimage Neurol Neurosurg normal observed obtained paradigms patients performed positive possible posterior precentral presurgical presurgical fMRI primary procedure processing reference regions resection response sensory signal single slice spatial specific speech standard statistical stimulation Stippich structures studies subjects sulcus superior surface surgery surgical tasks techniques temporal lobe tion values visual volume voxel Wada ER -
