Epilepsy, Refractory Clinical Trial
Official title:
Using Micro-filaments to Detect "Fast Ripples" and Improve the Identification of the Epileptogenic Zone
record fast ripples with novel intracranial electrodes with micro-tetrodes to improve the identification of epileptogenic zone (EZ) and investigate the neuronal circuits underlying brain dynamics associated with epilepsy
This study would improve the localization of the epileptogenic zone and reduce the overall duration of monitoring, especially in patients who do not experience a sufficient number of seizures during the implantation period. In addition, it would be possible to use micro-electrodes and propose a better surgical treatment to some patients whose preliminary assessment with macro-electrodes has not provided significant results. Finally, the data collected during this study will help us to further understand pathological brain activity and to describe the neuronal circuitry that gives rise to cortical signals and the relationships between them (from spindles to high frequency oscillations). ;
