Electrocorticography (ECoG) for seizure foci localization and for neuroscience research

DIETI Contact person / Partner: Paolo Bifulco

Abstract

The research aims to improve knowledge on the electrical potential generated by neurons in the brain in physiological condition and in some diseases such as epilepsy. Acquisition of biopotentials by means of electrode matrices placed directly on the brain cortex combined with anatomical information obtained by CT and MRI can provide more accurate information about the functioning of various brain areas. This can enrich our knowledge about neuroscience issues, support more specific diagnoses and treatments of pathologies and design new brain computer interfaces.

Objective

To obtain accurate anatomical localization of neuronal population that generate specific EEG waves by means of biomedical signals and images processing. Interpretation of some brain functions in healthy and pathological subjects. Development of diagnosis and therapy support tools.
