| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Electrocorticography (ECoG) recorded with chronically implanted intracranial can visualize brain activity directly, leading to the identification of epileptogenic areas. Recently, it has been suggested that clinical condition of epilepsy forms pathologically complicated neural network. In this study, we successfully visualized the spatial and temporal organization of epileptogenecity by means of the spatial filter analysis of magnetoencephalogram (MEG), instead of the conventional analysis of equivalent electric current dipole (ECD) model. In addition to this, stereotactic EEG (SEEG) methods was installed as approved clinical research for the intractable epilepsy cases. In comparison with other non-invasive imaging modality, the clinical significance of this new spatial filter analysis in MEG was validated. Eventually, these results contributed to clarify the complicated pathological condition of intractable epilepsy.
