The present study concerns the influence of utilized language tasks on the localization of language-positive areas and evoked error types during repetitive navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). 19 subjects underwent rTMS language mapping combined with object naming, pseudoword reading, verb generation, and action naming. In summary, the localization of language-positive areas varied depending on the applied task, and the distribution of error types differed among different tasks. Thus, to improve preoperative language mapping, it could be beneficial to select a language task according to the region of interest.
