Slow modulations of high-frequency activity (40–140 Hz) discriminate preictal changes in human focal epilepsy
Recent evidence suggests that some seizures are preceded by preictal changes that start from minutes to hours before an ictal event. Nevertheless an adequate statistical evaluation in a large database of continuous multiday recordings is still missing. Here, we investigated the existence of preictal changes in long-term intracranial recordings from 53 patients with intractable partial epilepsy ...
متن کاملTemporal changes of neocortical high-frequency oscillations in epilepsy.
High-frequency (100-500 Hz) oscillations (HFOs) recorded from intracranial electrodes are a potential biomarker for epileptogenic brain. HFOs are commonly categorized as ripples (100-250 Hz) or fast ripples (250-500 Hz), and a third class of mixed frequency events has also been identified. We hypothesize that temporal changes in HFOs may identify periods of increased the likelihood of seizure o...
متن کاملIn Vivo Intrinsic Optical Signal Imaging of Neocortical Epilepsy
Intrinsic optical signal (IOS) imaging is a technique for measuring changes in blood flow, metabolism, and cellular swelling associated with neuronal activity. The combined spatial and temporal resolution, in addition to the ability to sample large areas of cortex simultaneously, make it a powerful technique for brain mapping. IOS has only recently been applied systematically to the study of ep...
متن کاملNeocortical Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Complex partial seizures (CPSs) can present with various semiologies, while mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) is a well-recognized cause of CPS, neocortical temporal lobe epilepsy (nTLE) albeit being less common is increasingly recognized as separate disease entity. Differentiating the two remains a challenge for epileptologists as many symptoms overlap due to reciprocal connections between ...
متن کاملSurgical Approaches in Nonlesional Neocortical Epilepsy
There is inherent difficulty in identifying the epileptogenic zone in nonlesional neocortical epilepsy, which leads to the incomplete resection. However, with careful interpretation of other studies including functional neuroimaging and the presence of concordant results, surgical treatment can benefit selected patients with nonlesional neocortical epilepsy. Two recent large studies including o...
