Non-invasive Evaluation for Epilepsy Surgery
Epilepsy surgery is aimed to remove the brain tissues that are indispensable for generating patient's epileptic seizures. There are two purposes in the pre-operative evaluation: localization of the epileptogenic zone and localization of function. Surgery is planned to remove possible epileptogenic zone while preserving functional area. Since no single diagnostic modality is superior to others i...

متن کاملEvaluation of intractable epilepsy. Invasive monitoring.
Accurate localization of the epileptogenic zone is the fundamental key factor for successful epilepsy surgery. Despite the progress achieved in the field of neuroimaging, invasive intracranial recording is still the gold standard that helps recognize the patient population who may profit from surgery. Meticulous implantation of intracranial electrodes and judicious interpretation of their data ...
متن کاملPre-surgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery.
Neuropsychological testing may reflect subtle structural changes that may not be readily apparent with neuroimaging studies, and physiologic disruption of normal neural function secondary to epileptic activity. Neuropsychological testing is used during the pre-operative evaluation for epilepsy surgery to assess functional brain status, which, in turn, provides important information on the risks...
متن کاملEpilepsy surgery: eligibility criteria and presurgical evaluation
Epilepsy surgery has benefited from major advances during the last 20 years, thanks to the development of neuroimaging and long-term video-electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring. However, it remains the case that only a small minority of potential epilepsy surgery candidates will have access to a comprehensive presurgical evaluation. Furthermore, this subset of patients are operated on after ...
