The localization of functional areas obtained from functional MRI (fMRI) is useful for patients suffering from tumors contiguous to eloquent brain areas. fRMI is an efficient tool in the strategy of treatment of low grade oligodendroglioamas in the rolandic area in intact or slightly impaired patients. It can be used preoperatively to assess motor functional areas. Indeed there is a good correlation for motor cortex lesions when using comparison between fMRI and intraoperative findings. Direct integration of fMRI data into neuronavigation enables to better visualize and preserve eloquent brain areas. One must be aware of fMRI limits. It is still often used with the control of direct cortical stimulations.
