  • Publication number: 20220248959
    Abstract: System and method for processing, non-concurrently collected, electroencephalogram (EEG) data and resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) data, non-invasively, to create a patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) mapping of the patient's functional brain network. The mapping can be used to more precisely identify candidates of resective neurosurgery and to help create a targeted surgical plan for those patients. The methodology automatically maps the patient's unique brain network using non-concurrent EEG and resting state functional MRI (rsfMRI). Generally, the current invention merges EEG data and rsfMRI data to map the patient's epilepsy/seizure network. Correlated sections of the brain and inversely correlated sections of the brain are identified to determine which sections of the brain work in conjunction with each other and which sections work oppositely to each other during epileptic episodes.
