case_images: Three right-handed patients, suffering from left-sided opercular glioblastomas in two cases (47 years old male and 51 year old female) and from a left-sided astrocytoma WHO grade III of the angular gyrus (29 year old female) (Figure 1), initially presented with focal seizures. Moreover, each patient underwent MR imaging the day after surgery (Figure 1).
case_images: Cortical parcellation system (CPS). This graph shows the location of all regions of the CPS.
