Simultaneous EEG-CBV (Electroencephalography – Cerebral Blood Volume) measurements of epileptic spikes
Background: Simultaneous EEG and VASO (Vascular Space Occupancy) imaging can be used to characterize CBV (cerebral blood volume) changes during interictal epileptic discharges (IED’s). However, the VASO sequence causes more RF pulse artifacts in the EEG than spin-echo or gradient-echo functional MRI (fMRI) sequences, because the global inversion pulses in the VASO sequence require higher RF pow...

متن کاملSimultaneous intracranial EEG and fMRI of interictal epileptic discharges in humans
Simultaneous scalp EEG-fMRI measurements allow the study of epileptic networks and more generally, of the coupling between neuronal activity and haemodynamic changes in the brain. Intracranial EEG (icEEG) has greater sensitivity and spatial specificity than scalp EEG but limited spatial sampling. We performed simultaneous icEEG and functional MRI recordings in epileptic patients to study the ha...
متن کاملEffects of visual deprivation on epileptic activity in mature rat visual cortex
Effects of visual deprivation on the induction of epileptiform activity were studied in layer II/III of mature rat primary visual cortex. Field potentials were evoked by stimulation of layer IV in slices from control and dark-reared (OR) rats. Picrotoxin (PTX)-induced epileptic activity was characterized by spontaneous and evoked epileptic field potentials (EFPs). The results showed that OR s...
متن کاملThe effect of agonist and antagonist of Nociceptine/Orphanin FQ receptor on seizure and cognitive dysfunction in experimental model of temporal lobe epilepsy in male rat
Background: Temporal lobe epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by spontaneous seizures, learning and memory deficiency, loss of neurons, mossy fiber sprouting and tissue apoptosis. This study was to investigate the effect of NOP receptor agonist (MCOPPB) and antagonist (SB612111) on seizure and cognitive dysfunction and histological studies in experimental model of temporal...
