  • Brain network theory, the significance and practice in clinical epileptology

    Currently, about one-third of patients with anti-epilepsy drug or resective surgery continue to have sezure, the mechanism remin unknown. Up to date, the main target for presurgical evaluation is to determene the EZ and SOZ. Since the early nineties of the last century network theory was introduct into neurology, provide new insights into understanding the onset, propagation and termination. Focal seizure can impact the function of whole brain, but the abnormal pattern is differet to generalized seizure. Brain network is a conception of mathematics. According to the epilepsy, network node and hub are related to the treatment. Graphy theory and connectivity are main algorithms. Understanding the mechanism of epilepsy deeply, since study the theory of epilepsy network, can improve the planning of surgery, resection epileptogenesis zone, seizure onset zone and abnormal node of hub simultaneously, increase the effect of resectiv surgery and predict the surgery outcome. Eventually, develop new drugs for correct the abnormal network and increase the effect. Nowadays, there are many algorithms for the brain network. Cooperative study by the clinicans and biophysicists instituted standard and extensively applied algorithms is the precondition of widely used clinically.
