  • Title: New insights into the functional significance of the frontal aslant tract: an anatomo-functional study using intraoperative electrical stimulations combined with diffusion tensor imaging-based fiber tracking.
    Author: Vassal F, Boutet C, Lemaire JJ, Nuti C.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2014 Oct; 28(5):685-7. PubMed ID: 24552256.
    Abstract:
    We used the method of direct electrostimulation combined with navigated tractography to map the frontal "aslant" tract, enabling us to perform reliable anatomo-functional correlation in a patient undergoing awake surgery to remove a left frontal glioma. The findings enhanced our understanding of the organization of language within the human brain.
