Abstract

The purpose of this presentation is to report our image registration and analysis experience with a large-array biomagnetometer for magnetoencephaography (MEG) and a high resolution positron emission tomography (PET) scanner in the presurgical localization of spike sources of intractable epilepsy patients and in studying the relationship between metabolic and physiologic abnormalities detected in regions of interest during the evaluation. Findings of 12 epilepsy patients who underwent MEG and PET studies at UCSF are discussed.
