EEG-NIRS in epilepsy in children and neonates
Summary Coregistration of EEG-near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a recent technique used to analyse changes in both electrical and local hemodynamic activities. Here, we describe some technical aspects of simultaneous EEG-NIRS signal acquisition focusing on recent EEG-NIRS sensors, notably the Ele...

Summary: | Summary Coregistration of EEG-near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a recent technique used to analyse changes in both electrical and local hemodynamic activities. Here, we describe some technical aspects of simultaneous EEG-NIRS signal acquisition focusing on recent EEG-NIRS sensors, notably the Electroptode® ™. Advantages and disadvantages of simultaneous EEG-NIRS acquisition are discussed in comparison to other common techniques in epilepsy. Most important recent results are presented and discussed, notably those providing new insights into the mechanisms propelling neurons to synchronize, resulting in inter-critical spikes and different types of seizures. |
