Electroencephalography (EEG) with scalp electrodes can provide unique evidence of
epileptogenicity and, as such, it has a pivotal role in the evaluation of patients with medically …

Identification and localization of epileptogenic zone (EZ) is vital in patients with medically-
intractable focal epilepsy, who may be candidates for potentially curative resective epilepsy …

Selection of patients for invasive EEG recording A substantial fraction of patients with
epilepsy are intractable to treatment with antiepileptic drugs, either due to lack of efficacy or …

Brain activity data in general and more specifically in epilepsy can be represented as a
matrix that includes measures of electrophysiology, anatomy and behaviour. Each of these …

Simultaneous EEG/fMRI recordings offer a unique approach of characterizing epileptic brain
activity. The combination of high temporal resolution of EEG recordings and high spatial …

Simultaneous EEG and fMRI recordings permit the non-invasive investigation of the
generators of spontaneous brain activity such as epileptic spikes. Despite a growing interest …

EEG-fMRI has been used in epilepsy as a tool to indentify epileptic networks involved in the
generation of spikes and seizures. The method is based on the measure of blood flow …

The prevalence of epilepsy is about 1% and one-third of cases do not respond to medical
treatment. In an eligible subset of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy, surgical resection of …

The recording of EEG during functional MRI scanning (EEG/fMRI) has opened up new
dimensions in brain research. The simultaneous recording of EEG activity and its …

Successful epilepsy surgery requires accurate localization of the zone of seizure onset and
its complete removal without causing any permanent neurological deficits. While clinical …
