Multimodality in Functional Neuroimaging

Abstract

The multimodal approach which is conceptually based on the combination of different non-invasive functional neuroimaging tools and their registration and co-integration into neuronavigational systems is increasingly used in presurgical diagnostics. In particular, the combination of imaging techniques that map different functional systems is a useful procedure, such as functional MRI as a technique for the localization of eloquent cortex and diffusion-tensor imaging as a technique for mapping of white matter fiber bundles/tracts. Magnetic source imaging as an additional imaging technique of cortical function is of particular advantage in epilepsy surgery. Advanced pathoanatomy-based techniques such as nuclear medicine imaging (multi-ligand imaging) or MR spectroscopy additionally guide in the delineation of cerebral lesions and their borders (e.g., neoplasms). Although multimodal imaging may be complex in data acquisition and postprocessing, it is a valuable instrument to improve surgical planning and performance.
