  • Intraoperative brain mapping facilitates precise tumor delineation.
  • It aids in distinguishing between tumor tissue and healthy functional brain parenchyma.
  • The technique contributes to maximizing tumor removal while preserving neurological function.

Conclusions:

  • Intraoperative brain mapping is a vital tool for neurosurgeons.
  • It improves outcomes for patients undergoing resection of tumors in or near functional brain areas.
  • This approach supports achieving safe and effective surgical tumor removal.
