How can the accuracy of SEEG be increased?-an analysis of the accuracy of multilobe-spanning SEEG electrodes based on a frameless stereotactic robot-assisted system.

Annals of palliative medicine
BACKGROUND: A frameless stereotactic robot-assisted system allows stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) electrodes to span multiple lobes. As the angularity and length are increased, maintaining accuracy of the electrodes becomes more challenging. The ...

External validation of automated focal cortical dysplasia detection using morphometric analysis.

Epilepsia
OBJECTIVE: Focal cortical dysplasias (FCDs) are a common cause of drug-resistant focal epilepsy but frequently remain undetected by conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment. The visual detection can be facilitated by morphometric anal...

Preictal state detection using prodromal symptoms: A machine learning approach.

Epilepsia
A reliable identification of a high-risk state for upcoming seizures may allow for preemptive treatment and improve the quality of patients' lives. We evaluated the ability of prodromal symptoms to predict preictal states using a machine learning (ML...

Convolutional Neural Networks for Pediatric Refractory Epilepsy Classification Using Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained with resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rfMRI) latency data in the classification of patients with pediatric epilepsy from health...

Robot-assisted versus stereotactic frame-based stereoelectroencephalography in medically refractory epilepsy.

Neurophysiologie clinique = Clinical neurophysiology
AIM: To explore the difference between robot assisted (RA) and stereotactic frame based (SF) stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) in patients with medically refractory epilepsy.

Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Surgical Outcomes Can Be Inferred Based on Structural Connectome Hubs: A Machine Learning Study.

Annals of neurology
OBJECTIVE: Medial temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common form of medication-resistant focal epilepsy in adults. Despite removal of medial temporal structures, more than one-third of patients continue to have disabling seizures postoperativel...

Somatosensory evoked fields predict response to vagus nerve stimulation.

NeuroImage. Clinical
There is an unmet need to develop robust predictive algorithms to preoperatively identify pediatric epilepsy patients who will respond to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS). Given the similarity in the neural circuitry between vagus and median nerve affer...

Robot-assisted versus manual navigated stereoelectroencephalography in adult medically-refractory epilepsy patients.

Epilepsy research
OBJECTIVE: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has experienced a recent growth in adoption for epileptogenic zone (EZ) localization. Advances in robotics have the potential to improve the efficiency and safety of this intracranial seizure monitoring ...

Automated detection of hippocampal sclerosis using clinically empirical and radiomics features.

Epilepsia
OBJECTIVE: Temporal lobe epilepsy is a common form of epilepsy that might be amenable to surgery. However, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-negative hippocampal sclerosis (HS) can hamper early diagnosis and surgical intervention for patients in clini...
