During presurgical evaluation of pharmacoresistant partial epilepsies, stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) records interictal and ictal activities directly but is inherently limited in spatial sampling. In contrast, scalp-EEG and MEG are less sensitive but provide a global view on brain activity. Therefore, recording simultaneously these three modalities should provide a better understanding of the underlying brain sources by taking advantage of the different sensitivities of the three recording techniques. We performed trimodal EEG-MEG-SEEG recordings in a 19-year-old woman with pharmacoresistant cryptogenic posterior cortex epilepsy. Sub-continuous and highly focal spikes that were not visible at the surface were marked on SEEG by an epileptologist. Surface signals, MEG and scalp-EEG, were then averaged locked on SEEG spikes. MEG sources were reconstructed based on a moving dipole approach (Brainstorm software). This analysis revealed source within the left occipital pole, located posteriorly to the SEEG leads presenting the maximal number of spikes, in a region not explored by SEEG. In summary, simultaneous recordings provide a new framework for obtaining a view on brain signals that is both local and global, thereby overcoming the inherent SEEG limited spatial sampling.

D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon

D015225 Magnetoencephalography The measurement of magnetic fields over the head generated by electric currents in the brain. As in any electrical conductor, electric fields in the brain are accompanied by orthogonal magnetic fields. The measurement of these fields provides information about the localization of brain activity which is complementary to that provided by ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY. Magnetoencephalography may be used alone or together with electroencephalography, for measurement of spontaneous or evoked activity, and for research or clinical purposes. Magnetoencephalogram,Magnetoencephalograms
