ECoG high-gamma modulation versus electrical stimulation for presurgical language mapping.

CONCLUSION: Electrocorticographic high-γ modulation is a specific but not sensitive method for language localization compared with gold-standard ESM. Given the pooled DOR of 6.44 and AUC of 0.77, ECoG HGM can fairly reliably ascertain electrodes overlying ESM cortical language sites.
