Neuropsychological outcomes after resection of cortical sites with visual naming associated electrocorticographic high-gamma modulation.

In brief

This prospective study validates high-gamma modulation as a functional language mapping tool by comparing neuropsychological outcomes in epilepsy surgery patients who had cortical sites with visual naming-associated HGM resected versus preserved. Results demonstrate that resection of HGM-positive language sites correlates with measurable postoperative language deficits at one-year follow-up.
