The relative localizing value of interictal and immediate postictal SPECT in seizures of temporal lobe origin.
UNLABELLED Although interictal hypoperfusion and ictal hyperperfusion are established localizing findings in partial epilepsy, their relative value is disputed. After a meta analysis of several published articles on SPECT brain imaging in patients with epilepsy (with extractable data on at least 6 patients per article), institutions using SPECT for evaluation of epilepsy have been encouraged to...
متن کاملThe value of seizure semiology in lateralizing and localizing partially originating seizures.
Diagnosing epilepsy depends heavily on a detailed, and accurate description of the abnormal transient neurological manifestations. Observing the seizures yields important semiologic features that characterize epilepsy. Video-EEG monitoring allows the identification of important lateralizing (left versus right), and localizing (involved brain region) semiologic features. This information is vita...
متن کاملAnticipating the unobserved: prediction of subclinical seizures.
Subclinical seizures (SCS) have rarely been considered in the diagnosis and therapy of epilepsy and have not been systematically analyzed in studies on seizure prediction. Here, we investigate whether predictions of subclinical seizures are feasible and how their occurrence may affect the performance of prediction algorithms. Using the European database of long-term recordings of surface and in...
متن کاملDetecting and localizing the foci in human epileptic seizures.
We consider the electrical signals recorded from a subdural array of electrodes placed on the pial surface of the brain for chronic evaluation of epileptic patients before surgical resection. A simple and computationally fast method to analyze the interictal phase synchrony between such electrodes is introduced and developed with the aim of detecting and localizing the foci of the epileptic sei...
متن کاملLocalizing and lateralizing features of auras and seizures.
The symptomatology of auras and seizures is a reflection of activation of specific parts of the brain by the ictal discharge, the location and extent of which represent the symptomatogenic zone. The symptomatogenic zone is presumably, though not necessarily, in close proximity to the epileptogenic zone, the area responsible for seizure generation, the complete removal or disconnection of which ...
