Histo: histology of the lesion; LVol: lesion volume; Neurol. deficits preop/postop: preoperative/postoperative neurologic deficits; ShDi: shortest distance between cortical area with important brain function and lesion border; NVC: neurovascular coupling; funct. task: functional task; lang: language task; sm: sensorimotor task; r thresh.: correlation threshold used for BOLD fMRI data evaluation. Note: numbers lesser than 0.3 are the reduced threshold values at that an fMRI activity was visible. Men: meningioma; GB: glioblastoma WHO grade IV; AOG: anaplastic oligodendroglioma WHO grade III; AA: anaplastic astrocytoma WHO grade III; GG: ganglioglioma WHO grade I; LGA: low-grade astrocytoma WHO grade II; AVM: arteriovenous malformation; Cav: cavernoma.
