B. Clinical applications of fMR imaging for intracranial tumors and epilepsy
C. Stippich; Heidelberg/DE
Learning Objectives:
1. To learn about the functional neuroanatomy of motor, somatosensory and language-associated brain
activation.
2. To identify the indications for preoperative fMRI in patients with brain tumors.
3. To identify optimised preoperative fMRI protocols for patients with pre-existing defi cit.
4. To learn about normal and atypical fi ndings in preoperative fMRI (illustrative cases).
5. To learn about the validity, intrinsic problems, pitfalls and limitations of preoperative fMRI.

C. fMR imaging for evaluation of brain plasticity in multiple sclerosis and stroke
A. Bizzi; Milan/IT
Learning Objectives:
1. To learn about acute changes in functional segregation and connectivity occurring after a focal brain
lesion.
2. To learn about adaptive changes in functional segregation and connectivity occurring during recovery and
their relationship with functional improvement.
3. To learn about changes in motor and language network re-organisation induced by rehabilitation.
