Abstract

Deep learning algorithms have greatly improved our ability to estimate eloquent cortex regions from resting-state brain scans for patients about to undergo neurosurgery. The use of deep learning has the potential to fully automate functional mapping of cortex in this context. We present a highly focused state-of-the-art review on current technology for estimating eloquent cortex from resting-state functional magnetic resonance scans and identify potential paths to meet this goal in the future.
