Magnetoencephalography in pediatric epilepsy
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) records the magnetic field generated by electrical activity of cortical neurons. The signal is not distorted or attenuated, and it is contactless recording that can be performed comfortably even for longer than an hour. It has excellent and decent temporal resolution, especially when it is combined with the patient's own brain magnetic resonance imaging (magnetic so...
متن کاملMagnetoencephalography in the presurgical evaluation of epilepsy.
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an important tool in the presurgical evaluation of patients with medically refractory epilepsy. The appropriate utilization and interpretation of MEG studies can increase the proportion of patients who may be able to further pursue surgical evaluation, refine surgical planning, and potentially increase the probability of seizure freedom after surgery. The aim of ...
متن کاملMagnetoencephalography in Pediatric Lesional Epilepsy Surgery
This study was performed to assess the usefulness of magnetoencephalography (MEG) as a presurgical evaluation modality in Korean pediatric patients with lesional localization-related epilepsy. The medical records and MEG findings of 13 pediatric patients (6 boys and 7 girls) with localization-related epilepsy, who underwent epilepsy surgery at Seoul National University Children's Hospital, were...
متن کاملMagnetoencephalography in the study of epilepsy and consciousness
The neural bases of altered consciousness in patients with epilepsy during seizures and at rest have raised significant interest in the last decade. This exponential growth has been supported by the parallel development of techniques and methods to investigate brain function noninvasively with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. In this article, we review the contribution of magnetoe...
متن کاملMagnetoencephalography and its role in evaluation for epilepsy surgery.
Magnetoencephalography is a newly developed technology used for diagnostic and brain mapping imaging during the presurgical evaluation of patients with medically intractable epilepsy. It provides comprehensive localisation of an epileptogenic focus using simultaneous recordings from the entire brain surface. Magnetoencephalography and electroencephalography are considered complementary and conf...
