The problem of functional localization in the human brain.

Nature reviews. Neuroscience - 1 Mar 2002

Brett Matthew, Johnsrude Ingrid S, Owen Adrian M

Abstract excerpt

Functional imaging gives us increasingly detailed information about the location of brain activity. To use this information, we need a clear conception of the meaning of location data. Here, we review methods for reporting location in functional imaging and discuss the problems that arise from the great variability in brain anatomy between individuals. These problems cause uncertainty in localization, which...
