AbstractIn Brief: The study compared two types of functional MRI (fMRI) to see which side of the brain is most responsible for language: traditional task-based fMRI, which requires a high level of patient interaction, and resting-state fMRI, which is typically performed with the patient under light sedation and has no interaction requirement. The authors found that the test correlation was 93%, indicating resting state fMRI has potential to locate language in those unable to participate in task-based fMRI.
