An overview of the following six cortical zones that have been defined in the presurgical
evaluation of candidates for epilepsy surgery is given: the symptomatogenic zone; the …

Neurosurgery is an underutilized treatment that can potentially cure drug‐refractory
epilepsy. Careful, multidisciplinary presurgical evaluation is vital for selecting patients and to …

Emotional visual stimuli evoke enhanced responses in the visual cortex. To test whether this
reflects modulatory influences from the amygdala on sensory processing, we used event …

We have studied patients with variable degrees of left hippocampal and amygdala
pathology who performed a verbal encoding task during functional magnetic resonance …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has opened a new window to the brain. Measuring
hippocampal volume with MRI has provided important information about several …

Hydrogen 1 (1H) magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy enables noninvasive in vivo
quantification of metabolite concentrations in the brain. Currently, metabolite concentrations …

The association between hippocampal sclerosis (HS) and epilepsy has been known for
almost two centuries. For many years, HS was studied in postmortem series; however, since …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging can demonstrate the functional anatomy of
cognitive processes. In patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy, evaluation of …

Purpose: To characterize the neurodevelopmental correlates of childhood‐onset temporal
lobe epilepsy on brain structure and cognition compared with late‐onset chronic temporal …

BACKGROUND: Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) with hippocampus sclerosis (HS) is
an important cause for focal epilepsy. In this study, we explored the integrity of connecting …
