The procedure of nTMS motor mapping and image of nTMS-based DTI tracts. (A) Upload T1-weighted image. (B) Overlay of the 3D head model derived from MRI imaging and the actual patient head by means of surface registration to enable real-time neuronavigation. (C) Motor mapping stimulation. (D) Mark the nTMS positive spots on the cortex. (E) Left, nTMS-based DTI tracts: cortical nTMS positive spots (yellow) and nTMS-based DTI tracts (blue); Right, image fused with MRI: tumor (red), cortical nTMS positive spots (yellow), and nTMS-based DTI tracts (blue).
