Real‐time presurgical resting‐state fMRI in patients with brain tumors: Quality control and comparison with task‐fMRI and intraoperative mapping

Resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) is a promising task‐free functional imaging approach, which may complement or replace task‐based fMRI (tfMRI) in patients who have difficulties performing required tasks. However, rsfMRI is highly sensitive to head movement and physiological noise, and validation relative to tfMRI and intraoperative electrocortical mapping is still necessary. In this study, we investigate (a) the...
