Abstract EN
Neuropsychologists assist in diagnosis (i.e., localization of dysfunction) and in prediction (i.e., how cognition may change following surgery) in individuals being considered for temporal lobe surgery.
The current practice includes behavioural testing as well as mapping function via stimulation, inactivation, and (more recently) functional imaging.
These methods have been providing valuable information in surgical planning for 60 years.
Here, we discuss current assessment strategies and highlight how they are evolving, particularly with respect to integrating recent advances in cognitive neuroscience.
