Summary Brain tumor removal surgery requires both maximal tumor
removal and minimal postoperative complication. To realize
both, a surgeon needs to understand the brain-structure and
the brain-function positions of a patient. However, the type
and position of the brain tumor and the positions of the brainfunction vary in each patient. Thus, the surgeon awakes the
patient during surgery and uses electrical stimulation to identify
the brain-function positions~
