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 ...
OBJECTIVE: One barrier hindering high frequency brain signals (HFBS, >80 Hz) from wide clinical applications is that the brain generates both pathological and physiological HFBS. This study was to find specific biomarkers for localizing epileptogenic...
BACKGROUND: Fine operation has been an eternal topic in neurosurgery. There were many problems in functional neurosurgery field with high precision requirements. Our study aims to explore the operability, accuracy and postoperative effect of robot-as...

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...

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...
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...
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...
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: 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...

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...
