Comprehensive review of mapping procedures improves outcomes in glioma surgeries, highlighting safety and effectiveness.

The aim is to detail the evolution and effectiveness of the intraoperative functional brain mapping protocol for glioma surgeries.
Utilized anatomical and functional imaging protocols for preoperative assessment.
Performed cortical and subcortical mapping during resection with low and high frequency stimulation.
Integrated real-time neuronavigation and feedback from mapping paradigms throughout surgery.
Preoperative imaging data was extensively used, enhancing surgical guidance during tumor resection.
Constant feedback from mapping allowed for dynamic decisions regarding tumor resection based on functional pathway proximity.
Postoperative assessments predicted the permanence of deficits using MRI and clinical evaluations.

Chen et al. (2026) studied this question.
