DOI: 10.1093/neuros/nyx554
Abstract: BACKGROUND Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) enables preoperative mapping of the motor cortex (M1). The combination of nTMS with diffusion tensor imaging fiber tracking (DTI-FT) of the corticospinal tract (CST) has been described; however, its… read more here.

DOI: 10.23736/s0390-5616.19.04710-6
Abstract: BACKGROUND Maximal safe resection is the goal of modern surgical treatment of high-grade gliomas (HGGs) located close to the motor cortex (M1) and/or the corticospinal tract (CST). Preoperative planning based on navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.874631
Abstract: Background Surgical treatment of patients with glioblastoma affecting motor eloquent brain regions remains critically discussed given the risk–benefit dilemma of prolonging survival at the cost of motor-functional damage. Tractography informed by navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation… read more here.
