Eloquent cortex & eloquent WM---goal of neurosurgery
Added value—patient interactive (H & P, training, education
prescan), very different from volunteer research scanning

Typical Language Paradigms
• Expressive Language Tasks
•
– Verbal Fluency/Phonemic Fluency
– Rhyming (Phonological)
– Object Naming
Receptive Language Tasks
– Sentence Comprehension (V/A)/Story Listening
– Sentence Completion
– Semantic Decision (category, nva, s/a)
3
Essential vs. Nonessential Activation
• Complementary role of intraop mapping
• Role of convergent activation
• Role of statistical thresholding
4
Typical Motor Paradigms
• Hand Motor
•
•
– Bilateral simultaneous or alternating R/L hand
– AFT, hand clenching, thumb-index apposition
Foot Motor
– Toe flexion/extension
– Ankle flexion/extension
Face Motor
– Tongue movement—lateral or vertical
– Lip puckering

Diffusion Tensor Imaging—
Eloquent White Matter is just as important as Eloquent Cortex
• Damage to eloquent white matter similar to resection of eloquent cortex
• Water molecule diffusion is directionally dependent—anisotropy
• The direction of maximum diffusivity coincides with the WM fiber
tract orientation
7
The Diffusion Tensor
• The “diffusion tensor”is a matrix of numbers (mathematical model
describing diffusion in 3D space) derived from diffusion measurements in
several different directions (6+ directions for diffusion encoding).
• This tensor depicted as ellipsoid whose orientation is described by three
eigenvectors and its shape by three eigenvalues, which are its dimensions
(corresponding to diffusivity in each direction).2

SLF
• 4 parts of SLF:
– SLF I---horizontal fibers connecting superior parietal lobe to
frontal/opercular regions (premotor areas and SMA)
– SLF II---horizontal fibers connecting the AG to posterior prefrontal
cortices
– SLF III---horizontal fibers connecting the SMG to F lobe (pars
opercularis /ventral premotor areas [BA 44] and ventral prefrontal area
[BA 46])
– SLF IV---AF--- connects STG/MTG to frontal regions (caudal dorsal
prefrontal cortex, precentral gyrus but not BA as previously thought)

Functions of the SLF components
• SLF I: higher order control of body-centered action based on
proprioception and initiation of motor activity
• SLFII: involved in focusing spatial attention (hemi-inattention/neglect w
lesions)
• SLF III: involved in the gestural component of language and orofacial
working memory (lesions result in cortical dysarthria, oral/buccal apraxias,
impaired working memory)
• SLF IV (AF): thought that lesions result in conduction aphasia, but primate
evidence suggests that ExC and MdLF rather than AF responsible; AF
actually involved in spatial processing in the auditory domain (indicating
location and directionality of sounds rather than symbolic repres of lang)

Functions of various other important eloquent
tracts
• 1) SFOF—responsible for initiation and preparation of speech movements and

•
•
limbic aspects of speech
2) IFOF—involved in language ventral stream (semantic network, distinct from
phonological network mediated by SLF)
3) ILF—role in ventral visual stream (object recognition, discrimination and
memory including facial recognition—lesion>>>prosopagnosia)—actually lateral
to SS
4) Uncinate fasciculus– processing novel information, understanding emotional
aspects of sounds, regulation of emotional responses to auditory stimuli, enables
interaction between emotion and cognition, self-regulation, retrieval of past
information
5) Cingulum bundle—dorsal limbic pathway linking caudal cingulate gyrus with
HC and PHG (memory), prefrontal areas 9 & 46 (manipulating info, monitoring
behavior, working memory)—critical for motivational and emotional aspects of
behavior, spatial working memory (cingulotomy for OCD)

DTT Validation: Bello et al. Neuroimage 2008
• Study of 52 pts w LGG and 12 w HGG
• There was a high correlation between DT-FT and
ISM(sensitivity for CST=95%, language tracts=97%).
• The combination of both methods decreased the duration of
surgery, patient fatigue, and intraoperative seizures.

Limitations of DTT
Bürgel U, Mädler B, Honey CR, Thron A, Gilsbach J, Coenen VA.Fiber tracking
with distinct software tools results in a clear diversity in anatomical fiber tract
portrayal. Cen Eur Neurosurg. 2009 Feb;70(1):27-35.
– 4 different DTT software packages for display of CST of a single
normal subject; 3 used FACT (Fiber Assignment by Continuous
Tracking) method, one used Tensorline Propagation Algorithm.
– None of the software applications was able to display the CST in its full
anatomical extent
– The 4 packages did not lead to comparable tracking results despite use
of similar or identical tracking algorithms
16
Clinical Value of DTT vs. color directional
diffusion maps
• DTT is excellent for isolating tracts that run alongside other parallel tracts
• Major limitation for clinical use is undersampling of the tract ---operatordependent seeding, anatomic distortion.
• FA/angulation thresholds, step sizes arbitrary
• Error propagation—1st vs 2nd order processing
• Numerous algorithms---deterministic (discrete, subvoxel) & probabilistic
DTT with very little validation

Impact of preop fMRI on surgical
planning:
Petrella et al., Radiology, Sept. 2006;240:793-802
• Functional MRI performed on 39 consecutive patients with brain tumors.
• Change in neurosurgical treatment plans (as a result of preoperative fMRI)
occurred in 19 patients (P < .05), with a more aggressive approach
recommended after imaging in 18 patients.
• Functional MR imaging resulted in reduced surgical time (estimated
reduction, 15–60 minutes) in 22 patients who underwent surgery, a more
aggressive resection in six, and a smaller craniotomy in two.
• In four patients, sparing of patients from additional testing (e.g., Wada)
because of the functional MRI result.

Impact of preop fMRI on postoperative
clinical outcome
Roessler et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2005
• Twenty two patients with gliomas near motor cortex evaluated with both
motor 3T fMRI and intraoperative motor cortex stimulation (MCS).
• FMRI motor foci were successfully detected in all patients preoperatively,
whereas MCS was possible in only 17 of 22 patients (77.3%). In those 17
patients, 100% agreement was found between MCS and fMRI for localization
of primary motor cortex within 10 mm.
• Mild to moderate transient neurological deterioration occurred in six patients,
and a severe hemiparesis in one. All patients recovered within 3 months
(31.8% transient, 0% permanent morbidity).

Impact of preop DTI on Postsurgical Clinical
Outcome
Wu JS et al., Neurosurgery 2007
• Studied 238 pts—118 underwent DTI, 120 std 3D struct scans only for
neuronavigation.
• Postoperative motor deterioration occurred in 32.8% of control cases,
compared to 15.3% of the study cases (P < 0.001).
• The 6-month Karnofsky Performance Scale score of study cases was
significantly higher than that of control cases, P < 0.001; greater difference
for HGG than LGG.
• For 81 HGGs, the median survival of study cases was 21.2 months
compared with 14.0 months of control cases (P = 0.048).

Preop BOLD fMRI may serve as a prognostic
indicator—recent paper by Wood et al.,
AJNR 2011
• 74 patients w primary or met tumor underwent BOLD motor mapping
• 77 patients underwent BOLD language mapping
• Motor (p<0.001) and lang (P=0.009)LAD signif a/w pre or postop deficits
• Pre and postop deficits, grade, tumor loc and LAD predicted mortality
• Motor deficits increased linearly as dist from tumor to PSMC decreased,
while lang deficits incr exponentially as dist from tumor to lang areas decr
below 1 cm.
