Open diffusion MRI and connectivity data for epilepsy and surgery: The IDEAS II release

Peter N. Taylor, Gerard Hall, Jonathan Horsley +7

Epileptic seizures are generated in cerebral networks that propagate ictal and interictal activity. The structure of cerebral networks underpinning epileptic activity can be inferr…

From Pre- to Intra-operative MRI: Predicting Brain Shift in Temporal Lobe Resection for Epilepsy Surgery

Jingjing Peng, Giorgio Fiore, Yang Liu +8

Introduction: In neurosurgery, image-guided Neurosurgery Systems (IGNS) highly rely on preoperative brain magnetic resonance images (MRI) to assist surgeons in locating surgical ta…

Dual mechanism of Anti-Seizure Medications in controlling seizure activity

Guillermo M. Besne, Emmanuel Molefi, Sarah J. Gascoigne +12

Background: Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) can reduce seizure duration, but their precise modes of action are unclear. Specifically, it is unknown whether ASMs shorten seizures by…

Combined impact of grey and superficial white matter abnormalities: implications for epilepsy surgery

Csaba Kozma, Jonathan Horsley, Gerard Hall +9

Drug-resistant focal epilepsy is associated with abnormalities in the brain in both grey matter (GM) and superficial white matter (SWM). However, it is unknown if both types of abn…

Seizure freedom after surgical resection of diffusion-weighted MRI abnormalities

Jonathan Horsley, Gerard Hall, Callum Simpson +10

Importance: Many individuals with drug-resistant epilepsy continue to have seizures after resective surgery. Accurate identification of focal brain abnormalities is essential for s…

Anti-seizure medication load is not correlated with early termination of seizure spread

Nathan Evans, Sarah J. Gascoigne, Guillermo M. Besne +11

Objective: Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the mainstay of treatment for epilepsy, yet their effect on seizure spread is not fully understood. Higher ASM doses have been associ…

The Imaging Database for Epilepsy And Surgery (IDEAS)

Peter N. Taylor, Yujiang Wang, Callum Simpson +12

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a crucial tool to identify brain abnormalities in a wide range of neurological disorders. In focal epilepsy MRI is used to identify structural c…

Anti-seizure medication tapering correlates with daytime delta band power reduction in the cortex

Guillermo M. Besne, Nathan Evans, Mariella Panagiotopoulou +11

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the primary treatment for epilepsy, yet medication tapering effects have not been investigated in a dose, region, and time-dependent manner, des…

Identifying epileptogenic abnormality by decomposing intracranial EEG and MEG power spectra

Csaba Kozma, Gabrielle Schroeder, Tom Owen +6

Identifying abnormal electroencephalographic activity is crucial in diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. Recent studies showed that decomposing brain activity into periodic (oscill…

Diminished circadian and ultradian rhythms of human brain activity in pathological tissue in vivo

Christopher Thornton, Mariella Panagiotopoulou, Fahmida A Chowdhury +10

Chronobiological rhythms, such as the circadian rhythm, have long been linked to neurological disorders, but it is currently unknown how pathological processes affect the expressio…

Interictal MEG abnormalities to guide intracranial electrode implantation and predict surgical outcome

Thomas W. Owen, Vytene Janiukstyte, Gerard R. Hall +9

Intracranial EEG (iEEG) is the gold standard technique for epileptogenic zone (EZ) localisation, but requires a hypothesis of which tissue is epileptogenic, guided by qualitative a…

Identifying epileptogenic abnormalities through spatial clustering of MEG interictal band power

Thomas W. Owen, Vytene Janiukstyte, Gerard R. Hall +8

Successful epilepsy surgery depends on localising and resecting cerebral abnormalities and networks that generate seizures. Abnormalities, however, may be widely distributed across…

Complementary structural and functional abnormalities to localise epileptogenic tissue

Jonathan J Horsley, Rhys H Thomas, Fahmida A Chowdhury +10

When investigating suitability for surgery, people with drug-refractory focal epilepsy may have intracranial EEG (iEEG) electrodes implanted to localise seizure onset. Diffusion-we…

Temporal stability of intracranial EEG abnormality maps for localising epileptogenic tissue

Yujiang Wang, Gabrielle M Schroeder, Jonathan J Horsley +8

Objective: Identifying abnormalities in interictal intracranial EEG, by comparing patient data to a normative map, has shown promise for the localisation of epileptogenic tissue an…

MEG abnormalities and mechanisms of surgical failure in neocortical epilepsy

Thomas W. Owen, Gabrielle M. Schroeder, Vytene Janiukstyte +8

Neocortical epilepsy surgery fails to achieve post-operative seizure freedom in 30-40% of cases. It is not fully understood why surgery in some patients is unsuccessful. Comparing…

Intracranial EEG structure-function coupling predicts surgical outcomes in focal epilepsy

Nishant Sinha, John S. Duncan, Beate Diehl +9

Alterations to structural and functional brain networks have been reported across many neurological conditions. However, the relationship between structure and function -- their co…

Normative brain mapping of interictal intracranial EEG to localise epileptogenic tissue

Peter N Taylor, Christoforos A Papasavvas, Thomas W Owen +11

The identification of abnormal electrographic activity is important in a wide range of neurological disorders, including epilepsy for localising epileptogenic tissue. However, this…

Interictal intracranial EEG for predicting surgical success: the importance of space and time

Yujiang Wang, Nishant Sinha, Gabrielle M. Schroeder +8

Predicting post-operative seizure freedom using functional correlation networks derived from interictal intracranial EEG has shown some success. However, there are important challe…

The impact of epilepsy surgery on the structural connectome and its relation to outcome

Peter N Taylor, Nishant Sinha, Yujiang Wang +6

Temporal lobe surgical resection brings seizure remission in up to 80% of patients, with long-term complete seizure freedom in 41%. However, it is unclear how surgery impacts on th…
