AbstractDirect electrical stimulation (DES) of the cortex is a clinically indispensable brain mapping technique that provides reliable information about the distribution of eloquent cortex and its connectivity to the white matter bundles. Here we present a technical report on mapping the short latency cortical responses to stimulation of the ventral anterior nucleus of human thalamus. Reliable downstream responses were noted in the regions connected to the ventral anterior nucleus i.e. superior and inferior frontal gyri, supplementary motor area and limbic substructures (cingulate gyrus and hippocampus).
