The present study investigates the effectiveness of a deep learning neural network for non-invasively localizing the seizure onset zone (SOZ) using multi-modal MRI data that are clinically acquired from children with drug-resistant epilepsy. A cortic...
OBJECTIVE: Since 2007, the authors have performed 34 hemispherotomies and 17 posterior quadrant disconnections (temporoparietooccipital [TPO] disconnections) for refractory epilepsy at Sant Joan de Déu Barcelona Children's Hospital. Incomplete discon...
OBJECTIVE: In drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy, automated tools for seizure onset zone (SOZ) localization that use brief interictal recordings could supplement presurgical evaluations and improve care. Thus, the authors sought to localize SOZs b...
OBJECTIVE: Precise preoperative evaluation of drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) requires accurate analysis of invasive stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG). With the tremendous breakthrough of Artificial intelligence (AI), previous studies can help clinic...
OBJECTIVE: Localization of focal epilepsy is critical for surgical treatment of refractory seizures. There remains a great need for noninvasive techniques to localize seizures for surgical decision-making. We investigate the use of deep learning usin...
OBJECTIVE: Real-time, MRI-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRgLITT) has been reported as a safe and effective technique for the treatment of epileptogenic foci in children and adults. After the recent approval of MRgLITT by the European Med...
Interictal High Frequency Oscillations (HFO) are measurable in scalp EEG. This development has aroused interest in investigating their potential as biomarkers of epileptogenesis, seizure propensity, disease severity, and treatment response. The deman...

PURPOSE: Patients with pharmacoresistant refractory epilepsy may require epilepsy surgery to prevent future seizure occurrences. Conventional surgery consists of a large craniotomy with straight rigid tools with associated outcomes of morbidity, larg...

INTRODUCTION: Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a rare and underreported EEG pattern known to be related to epileptic encephalopathy. We aimed to investigate the electroclinical spectrum of GPFA along with other atypical EEG features in ...

Robot-assisted stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) is frequently employed to localize epileptogenic zones in patients with medically refractory epilepsy (MRE). Its methodology is well described in adults, but less so in children. Given the limited in...
