Modern cortical mapping is a cornerstone for safe supratentorial glioma resection in eloquent brain and allows maximal resection with improved functional outcomes. The unlocking of brain functionality through close observation and eventually via cortical stimulation has a fascinating history and was made possible by contributions from early physician-philosophers and neurosurgery's founding fathers. Without an understanding of brain function and functional localization, none of today's modern cortical mapping would be possible.
现代皮质映射是在功能区大脑进行安全幕上胶质瘤切除的基石，它允许最大限度地切除肿瘤，同时改善功能预后。通过密切观察并最终通过皮质刺激来揭示大脑功能的奥秘，这一过程有着引人入胜的历史，早期的医生哲学家和神经外科的奠基人为此做出了贡献。如果没有对大脑功能和功能定位的理解，就不可能有今天的现代皮质映射。
