Smaller-magnetoencephalography-helmets-can-assess-epilepsy-in-children
2022 10 May
A recent study in Radiology demonstrates that optically-pumped magnetometers (OPM) can shrink magnetoencephalography (MEG) helmets and facilitate their use for assessing epilepsy in children. Although MEG is now used to detect and localise focal interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), current systems need cryogenically-cooled sensors, which...Read more

MRI elastography: ground-breaking new way to see extremely fast neuronal activity in the brain It is magnificent how fast the human brain operates. In a fraction of a second our neurons are activated, creating thoughts and reactions to stimuli. The speed at which radiologists can non-invasively follow brain function using MRI , however, is...Read more

A new study, available online in the journal ‘Radiology’, published its findings on the latest research on epilepsy, since the most frequent type of this condition causes abnormal, widespread connections in patients’ brains which could provide indicators towards detection and treatment. Seizures emanating from the temporal lobes, situated right...Read more
