MULTIMODALITY WORKSTATION FOR SEIZURE LOCALIZATION

随着对部分性食管癌手术治疗价值的日益重视， 癫痫发作难治性抗惊厥药物，有一个紧迫的 需要一个以计算机为基础的系统，以方便本地化的一个 通过使数据易于可视化和整合， 从多个来源。因此，我们建议制定一个国家的- 一个叫做癫痫工作站的软件系统，用来处理头皮， 网格和深度EEG数据并整合此功能性神经生理学 这些信息与从每个患者的MRI导出的解剖学大脑模型相关联。 该集成组件将向上兼容预期的 局部脑血容量变化的影像学研究进展 “功能性”MRI。

With the increased emphasis of the value of surgical treatment of partial seizures refractory to anticonvulsant medication, there is a pressing need for a computer-based system to facilitate localization of a seizure's origin by allowing easy visualization and integratation of data from multiple sources. Accordingly, we propose to develop a state-of-the- art software system, called the Epilepsy Workstation, to process scalp, grid and depth EEG data and integrate this functional neurophysiological information with anatomical brain models derived from each patient's MRI. This integrative component will be upwardly compatible with anticipated advances in imaging variations in local cerebral blood volume with fast "functional" MRI.
