Task‐based functional magnetic resonance imaging (tfMRI) has developed as a common
alternative in epilepsy surgery to the intracarotid amobarbital procedure, also known as the …

Improved structural MRI increases detection of abnormalities that may underlie epilepsy.
Diffusion, structural and functional MRI indicate the widespread associations of epilepsy …

The Intracarotid amobarbital test (IAT), also called Wada test, is considered the “gold
standard” for lateralizing language dominance in the pre-surgical evaluation of patients with …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is among the newest techniques of
advanced neuroimaging that offer the opportunity for neuroradiologists, neurophysiologists …

The Wada test is the gold standard for determining language-dominant hemisphere.
However, the precise determination of language areas in each patient requires more …

OBJECTIVE The goal of epilepsy surgery is both seizure cessation and maximal
preservation of function. In temporal lobe (TL) cases, the lack of functional MRI (fMRI) tasks …

Objective Clinically employable functional MRI (fMRI) memory paradigms are not yet
