A systematic review of neuroimaging approaches to mapping language in individuals.

ABSTRACT: Although researchers often rely on group-level fMRI results to draw conclusions about the neurobiology of language, doing so without accounting for the complexities of individual brains may reduce the validity of our findings. Furthermore, understanding brain organization in individuals is critically important for both basic science and clinical translation. To assess the state of single-subject language localization in the functional neuroimaging literature, we carried out a systematic review of studies published through April 2020. Out of 977 papers identified through our search, 121 met our inclusion criteria for reporting single-subject fMRI results (fMRI studies of language in adults that report task-based single-subject statistics). Of these, 20 papers reported using a single-subject
