Abstract: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allows the non-invasive assessment of human brain activity in vivo. In glioma patients, fMRI isfrequently used to determine the individual functional anatomy of the motor and language network in a presurgical setting to optimize surgicalprocedures and prevent extensive damage to functionally eloquent areas. Novel developments based on resting-state fMRI may help to improvepresurgical planning for patients which are unable to perform structured tasks and might extend presurgical mapping to include additional functionalnetworks. Recent advances indicate a promising potential for future applications of fMRI in glioma patients which might help to identifyneoplastic tissue or predict the long-term functional outcome of individual patients
