RAPID AND EFFICIENT LOCALIZATION OF DEPTH ELECTRODES AND CORTICAL LABELING USING FREE AND OPEN SOURCE MEDICAL SOFTWARE IN EPILEPSY SURGERY CANDIDATES

Rapid and efficient localization of depth electrodes and cortical labeling using free and open source medical software in epilepsy surgery candidates

Depth intracranial electrodes (IEs) placement is one of the most used procedures to identify the epileptogenic zone (EZ) in surgical treatment of drug resistant epilepsy patients, about 20-30% of this population.IEs localization is therefore a critical issue defining the EZ and its relation with eloquent functional areas.That information is then us
