We used the recently developed method of combined
intracranial EEG and fMRI (icEEG-fMRI) in a patient with
epilepsy who had a focal electrographic seizure during
scanning. We used an expert visually coded model and a
quantitative model of spectral dynamics during the
seizure obtained by frequency transformation followed by
convolution by a haemodynamic response function and
principle component analysis (PCA). Both models gave a
similar widespread network of changes including in the
right temporal lobe where the seizure onset was
recorded. The quantitative model had greater statistical
power and included a cluster proximal to the electrode
that recorded seizure onset.
