Cultural Recycling of Cortical Maps [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2007
Part of human cortex is specialized for cultural domains such as reading and arithmetic, whose invention is too recent to have influenced the evolution of our species. Representations of letter strings and of numbers occupy reproducible locations within large-scale macromaps, respectively in the left occipito-temporal and bilateral intraparietal cortex.

Cortical surface segmentation and mapping [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2004
Segmentation and mapping of the human cerebral cortex from magnetic resonance (MR) images plays an important role in neuroscience and medicine. This paper describes a comprehensive approach for cortical reconstruction, flattening, and sulcal segmentation.

Cortical stimulation of language fields under local anesthesia: optimizing removal of brain lesions adjacent to speech areas Mapeamento cortical da fala com o paciente acordado: optimização para ressecção de lesões intracranianas localizadas próximas a área da fala

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2008
OBJECTIVE: The main objective when resecting benign brain lesions is to minimize risk of postoperative neurological deficits. We have assessed the safety and effectiveness of craniotomy under local anesthesia and monitored conscious sedation for the ...

Modeling cortical maps with Topographica [PDF]

open access: yesNeurocomputing, 2004
The biological function of cortical neurons can often be understood only in the context of large, highly interconnected networks. These networks typically form two-dimensional topographic maps, such as the retinotopic maps in the visual system. Computational simulations of these areas have led to valuable insights about how cortical topography develops

Functional properties of human auditory cortical fields

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2010
While auditory cortex in non-human primates has been subdivided into multiple functionally-specialized auditory cortical fields (ACFs), the boundaries and functional specialization of human ACFs have not been defined.

Intra-operative multi-site stimulation: Expanding methodology for cortical brain mapping of language functions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Direct cortical stimulation (DCS) is considered the gold-standard for functional cortical mapping during awake surgery for brain tumor resection. DCS is performed by stimulating one local cortical area at a time.

TMSmap – Software for Quantitative Analysis of TMS Mapping Results

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
The use of the MRI-navigation system ensures accurate targeting of TMS. This, in turn, results in TMS motor mapping becoming a routinely used procedure in neuroscience and neurosurgery.

Mapping Horizontal Spread of Activity in Monkey Motor Cortex using Single Pulse Microstimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2016
Anatomical studies have demonstrated that distant cortical points are interconnected through long range axon collaterals of pyramidal cells. However, the functional properties of these intrinsic synaptic connections, especially their relationship with ...
