While neuroimaging has revealed some spatial segregation between responses to music versus other sounds, little is known about the neural code for music itself. To address this question, we developed a method to infer canonical response components of human auditory cortex using intracranial responses to natural sounds, and further used the superior coverage of fMRI to map their spatial distribution. The inferred components replicated many prior findings, including distinct neural selectivity for speech and music, but also revealed a novel component that responded nearly exclusively to music with singing. Song selectivity was not explainable by standard acoustic features, was located near speech- and music-selective responses, and was also evident in individual electrodes. These results suggest that representations of music are fractionated into subpopulations selective for different types of music, one of which is specialized for the analysis of song.10aAuditory Cortex10acomponent10aECoG10aElectrocorticography10afMRI10amusic10anatural sounds10asong10aSpeech10avoice1 aNorman-Haignere, Sam, V.1 aFeather, Jenelle1 aBoebinger, Dana1 aBrunner, Peter1 aRitaccio, Anthony1 aMcDermott, Josh, H.1 aSchalk, Gerwin1 aKanwisher, Nancy  uhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S096098222200131202881nas a2200397   4500008004100000022001400041245011100055210006900166260001200235300001100247490000700258520172500265653001501990653002002005653001802025653002002043653002502063653002702088653002402115653001102139653001102150653001302161653002902174653003202203653001102235100002602246700001902272700002602291700002402317700001902341700001902360700001802379700002302397700001502420856004802435       2014                        eng d  a1933-071500aReal-time functional mapping: potential tool for improving language outcome in pediatric epilepsy surgery.0 aRealtime functional mapping potential tool for improving languag  c09/2014  a287-950 v143 a<p>Accurate language localization expands surgical treatment options for epilepsy patients and reduces the risk of postsurgery language deficits. Electrical cortical stimulation mapping (ESM) is considered to be the clinical gold standard for language localization. While ESM affords clinically valuable results, it can be poorly tolerated by children, requires active participation and compliance, carries a risk of inducing seizures, is highly time consuming, and is labor intensive. Given these limitations, alternative and/or complementary functional localization methods such as analysis of electrocorticographic (ECoG) activity in high gamma frequency band in real time are needed to precisely identify eloquent cortex in children. In this case report, the authors examined 1) the use of real-time functional mapping (RTFM) for language localization in a high gamma frequency band derived from ECoG to guide surgery in an epileptic pediatric patient and 2) the relationship of RTFM mapping results to postsurgical language outcomes. The authors found that RTFM demonstrated relatively high sensitivity (75%) and high specificity (90%) when compared with ESM in a "next-neighbor" analysis. While overlapping with ESM in the superior temporal region, RTFM showed a few other areas of activation related to expressive language function, areas that were eventually resected during the surgery. The authors speculate that this resection may be associated with observed postsurgical expressive language deficits. With additional validation in more subjects, this finding would suggest that surgical planning and associated assessment of the risk/benefit ratio would benefit from information provided by RTFM mapping.</p>10aAdolescent10aAnticonvulsants10aBrain Mapping10aCerebral Cortex10aElectric Stimulation10aElectroencephalography10aEpilepsies, Partial10aFemale10aHumans10aLanguage10aNeuropsychological Tests10aSensitivity and Specificity10aSpeech1 aKorostenskaja, Milena1 aChen, Po-Ching1 aSalinas, Christine, M1 aWesterveld, Michael1 aBrunner, Peter1 aSchalk, Gerwin1 aCook, Jane, C1 aBaumgartner, James1 aLee, Ki, H  uhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24995815
