Jun 13th, 2022 - Epilepsy surgery should be considered in all patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. The diagnostic presurgical evaluation aims to delineate the epileptogenic zone and its relationship to eloquent brain regions. Genetic testing is not yet rou...

Feb 27th, 2022 - Electrical stimulation mapping (ESM) is an important tool for the localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) in patients with medically resistant epilepsy (MRE). ESM is the gold standard for the identification of eloquent cortex in epilepsy surg...

Mar 27th, 2019 - Patients with drug resistant epilepsy can be offered resective neurosurgery if seizure semiology, video-EEG and MRI points to a focal origin in the brain. Are these investigations not concordant or is the MRI without a lesion, then additional inve...

Feb 5th, 2018 - The SEMAINE project will investigate intracranial EEG (icEEG) simultaneously recorded with either fMRI or MEG to 1) improve identification of the epileptogenic zone in patients suffering from drug-resistant partial epilepsy, and 2) define the func...

Jan 8th, 2008 - Successful epilepsy surgery depends on accurate identification of the area of brain from which seizures originate (the epileptogenic zone). There are many non-invasive tests (including EEG and MRI) to indicate this area. Some patients require impl...
