Electroencephalography–functional magnetic resonance imaging of epileptiform discharges: Noninvasive investigation of the whole brain
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Simultaneous electroencephalography-functional magnetic resonance imaging (EEG-fMRI) is a unique and noninvasive method for investigating epileptic activity. Interictal epileptiform discharge-related EEG-fMRI provides cortical and subcortical blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal changes specific to epileptic discharges. As a result, EEG-fMRI has revealed insights into generators and networks involved in epileptic activity in different types of epilepsy, demonstrating-for instance-the implication of the thalamus in human generalized spike and wave discharges and the role of the default mode network in absences and focal epilepsy, and has suggested a mechanism for the cortico-subcortical interactions in Lennox-Gastaut syndrome discharges. EEG-fMRI can find deep sources of epileptic activity not available to scalp EEG or magnetoencephalography, and provides critical new information to delineate the epileptic focus when considering surgical treatment or electrode implantation. In recent years, methodological advances, such as artifact removal and automatic detection of events, have rendered this method easier to implement, and its clinical potential has since been established by evidence of the impact of BOLD response on clinical decision-making and of the relationship between concordance of BOLD responses with extent of resection and surgical outcome. This review presents the recent developments in EEG-fMRI methodology and EEG-fMRI studies in different types of epileptic disorders as follows: EEG-fMRI acquisition, gradient and pulse artifact removal, statistical analysis, clinical applications, presurgical evaluation, altered physiological state in generalized genetic epilepsy, and pediatric EEG-fMRI studies.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
