Electrical cortical stimulation (ECS) is often used in presurgical evaluation procedures for patients suffering from pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Real-time functional mapping (RTFM) is an alternative brain mapping methodology that can accompany traditional functional mapping approaches like ECS. In this paper, we present a combined RTFM/ECS system that aims to exploit the common ground and the advantages...
This study demonstrates the feasibility of high-gamma activity mapping for localization of somatosensory finger areas in the human brain. Identification of functional brain regions is important in surgical planning, such as for resections of epileptic foci or brain tumors. The mapping procedure is done using electrocorticography (ECoG), an invasive technique in which electrical brain signals are acquired...
For neurosurgery with an awake craniotomy, the critical issue is to set aside enough time to identify eloquent cortices by electrocortical stimulation (ECS). High gamma activity (HGA) ranging between 80 and 120 Hz on electrocorticogram (ECoG) is assumed to reflect localized cortical processing. In this report, we used realtime HGA mapping and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) for rapid...
In this paper the replacement of a lost learning function of rats through a computer-based real-time recording and feedback system is shown. In an experiment two recording electrodes and one stimulation electrode were implanted in an anesthetized rat. During a classical-conditioning paradigm, which includes tone and airpuff stimulation, biosignals were recorded and the stimulation events detected...
